Conservative — Central Suffolk and North Ipswich

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 January 2025

Debate

Public Finances: Borrowing Costs

Contribution

I have heard that the Minister is the future, but all he wants to talk about is the past. The fact of the matter is that, today, borrowing costs are up, business confidence is down and growth is going nowhere. Is it not time to admit that this lefty economic experiment is not working? It is time to cut taxes and cut spending.
