Labour — Sefton Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 April 2025

Debate

UK-US Trade and Tariffs

Contribution

The US tariffs have serious implications for UK industry. They are a reminder of the importance of the industrial strategy and Government support, including for domestic steel- making capability, which, sadly, the Conservative party neglected badly over 14 years. Will my right hon. Friend confirm that he is fully committed to the plan for steel, and confirm the importance of our sovereign steelmaking capacity?
