Speaking in the House of Lords on 24 February 2026
Debate
National Insurance Contributions (Employer Pensions Contributions) BillContribution
I do not think that the Government intended to write this legislation to create this problem, but I would be interested to hear more. Student loans certainly seem to be the topic of the month. I say in passing that I am incredibly sympathetic to students who are paying a ridiculously high amount of interest, as the leader of the Opposition identified this week. I have heard and seen physical evidence of one student who now has a debt of £80,000 because of interest rolling up.
