Conservative — Herne Bay and Sandwich

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 March 2025

Debate

National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) Bill

Contribution

It is an amazing point, and I hope that the hon. Gentleman will get it, because it was clear that the Prime Minister did not get it at Prime Minister’s questions. Let’s tell the real truth: the money that is being given by the Government—taxpayers’ money—to children’s hospices such as Shooting Star and Demelza hospices, is for buildings. The national insurance increase is directly hitting the people who do the work on which very sick children depend. Why is that imposition being made?
