Labour — Birmingham Hodge Hill and Solihull North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 June 2025

Debate

Industrial Strategy

Contribution

That is absolutely right. The challenges we face as a country are so large that no one Department, business or sector can solve them on their own. The only way to crack the code of that challenge and to reach our ambitions for the future is by mobilising a whole-of-society approach. Otherwise, frankly, we are going to fail and squander the potential in front of us.
