Labour — Leicester West

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 November 2024

Debate

“Get Britain Working” White Paper

Contribution

The hon. Lady raises a really important point. We have a clear manifesto commitment to review universal credit, tackle poverty and make work pay. That issue has been raised a lot with me and the Minister for Social Security and Disability. I am sure that he will look closely at that. We need our benefits system to match the reality of people’s working lives today.
