Labour — Leeds West and Pudsey

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 July 2024

Debate

Public Spending: Inheritance

Contribution

I do not believe that any member of the previous Cabinet could not have been aware of the scale of this cover-up and the scale of the overspending. They should hang their heads in shame. Instead of coming to this Chamber today and issuing platitudes, they should have done the right thing and apologised to the country.
