Jerome Mayhew

Conservative — Broadland and Fakenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 March 2026

Debate

Hospitality Sector

Contribution

Six hospitality venues are closing every single day under this Government. If the Government actually asked the sector why, businesses would tell them: it is because of the jobs-killing national insurance tax rises—literally a tax on jobs—as well as the red tape and additional costs of the Employment Rights Act 2025. When are the Government finally going to realise that those job losses and business closures are not happening despite the work of the Government, they are happening because of it?
