Conservative — Harrow East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 May 2026

Debate

Getting Britain Working Again

Contribution

Reports suggest that unemployed people who are signing on are getting trained for jobs that do not exist, not for the jobs in the sectors where there are opportunities to work. Will the Secretary of State reform the system so that those who are unemployed and seeking a job are trained to do the jobs that are available?
