Harriet Cross

Conservative — Gordon and Buchan

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 May 2026

Debate

Getting Britain Working Again

Contribution

I completely agree that we must protect British industries such as steel and oil and gas refining—they are all vital. The carbon tax is a reason why these industries are declining and moving overseas. From what the hon. Member is saying, it feels like he agrees that we should get rid of the carbon tax. Is that correct?
