In 2013, my officer and colleague Philippa Reynolds was killed by a career criminal, Shane Frane. He rammed her police car and was convicted of manslaughter. The sentence that he got was paltry: a minimum term of six years. He was out not long after that. Will you urgently review your thoughts on Harper's law and make…

Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. Alexander McCartney was an evil and depraved man. He should never walk the streets again. I know a little bit about his offending. We talk about sextortion and blackmail. This was a man who got children to do things to themselves for his sexual gratification, and he tortured…

I will raise an issue that is difficult, but I will try to do so in a sensitive way. This is in no way prejudicial to the vast majority of people who follow Islam, but there have been examples of Islamic preachers who have preached hatred and extremism or for the subservience of women under men. Will any steps be…
