Lucy Powell

Labour (Co-op) — Manchester Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 6 February 2025

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

The hon. Lady has taken the opportunity —an important opportunity—to raise an issue which I am sure will be of interest to many Members on both sides of the House: the role that women play in farming and how vital that role is, and some of the challenges that they experience, often in silence or without recognition. I am sure that this too would be a very good topic for a debate.
