Independent — South Basildon and East Thurrock

Speaking in the House of Commons on 16 December 2024

Debate

English Devolution

Contribution

Yesterday, a former Labour deputy leader referred to my party as a “threat to democracy”. I am sure that that was a cute turn of phrase for television, but given that the framework that the Minister has laid out allows elections next year to be gamed so easily, is the real threat not potentially the Labour party?
