Graham Stuart

Conservative — Beverley and Holderness

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 September 2025

Debate

Hospitality Sector

Contribution

My hon. Friend might have been like me: the first job I ever had was as a porter, and then a barman, at the Crown and Mitre hotel in Carlisle. These are opportunities for people who are coming into the labour market for the first time or trying to get back into the labour market. The hospitality sector offers opportunity to people who otherwise have none, and that opportunity has come under devastating attack from this Government.
