Labour — Folkestone and Hythe

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 January 2025

Debate

UK-China Economic and Financial Dialogue

Contribution

I congratulate the Chancellor on unlocking £1 billion of value for the UK economy that would not have been unlocked if she had not gone to China. However, does she agree that the Government’s much-needed decision to thaw UK-China relations is now reaping dividends while also allowing us to press China on difficult issues, including human rights and labour standards?
