Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 July 2025

Debate

Welfare Reform

Contribution

I am proud of the steps that this Government have already taken to deliver on our promise of a better future for all. We are creating more good jobs in every part of the country, including through our modern industrial strategy and plans for clean energy. We are investing in our vital transport infrastructure and in skills, and getting the NHS back on its feet. Our landmark Employment Rights Bill will improve the quality of work, and our increases in the national minimum wage are helping make work pay. But alongside these vital steps, we need to reform the welfare state.
