Labour (Co-op) — Harrow West

Speaking in the House of Commons on 1 May 2025

Debate

High Street Businesses

Contribution

The Conservative party has a rather dismal record on support to workers. I gently say to the hon. Gentleman that most businesses that do the right thing by their employees support the Employment Rights Bill. One reason the Bill is so important is that it will help put more money into people’s pockets, and that will have a knock-on benefit for high street businesses.
