Questions Asked by This MP
Parliamentary questions and government responses.
Response classifications show how directly each question was answered.
The Government keep saying that this virus does not discriminate, but that is not true. Office for National Statistics figures show that black people, African and Caribbean people are four times more likely to die from covid-19. The figure is also disproportionately high for Bangladeshi, Pakistani or Indian communities. What is the Prime Minister going to do now about this?
Context
Office for National Statistics figures show that black people, African and Caribbean people are four times more likely to die from Covid-19 compared to the general population. The figure is also disproportionately high for Bangladeshi, Pakistani or Indian communities.
Boris Johnson
Yes. As the hon. Lady may know, we are looking at all the comorbidities associated with the coronavirus and all the reasons why people might be disproportionately affected. A rapid review is now being conducted by Professor Fenton, who will report at the end of the month about particularly vulnerable groups. We will take steps to ensure that they are protected where that is appropriate.

Important Context
- - Ministers answer questions rather than asking them, so have different activity patterns
- - Activity quantity doesn't measure quality or effectiveness of representation
- - Some MPs focus more on constituency work than parliamentary questions
- - Newly elected MPs will have less parliamentary history
