Labour (Co-op) — Harlow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 March 2026

Debate

Representation of the People Bill

Contribution

I declare an interest as chair of the all-party parliamentary group for young carers and young adult carers. Does the Secretary of State recognise that when young carers and young adult carers get to the age of 16, they have potentially already been caring for a loved one for over a decade? They are emotionally intelligent and educated enough, and have enough life experience, to deserve the democratic right to vote.
