Sarah Dyke

Liberal Democrat — Glastonbury and Somerton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 May 2025

Debate

Business and the Economy

Contribution

The hon. Gentleman talks about the impact on people. A small business in Fifehead in my constituency has recently had to reduce its staff by four—small business, real impact. Small businesses create so much for our rural economy. Does he agree that the Government should scrap the national insurance contributions rise and replace the broken business rates with a new, fairer funding system to boost our rural economies and jobs in our rural areas?
