James Wild

Conservative — North West Norfolk

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 May 2026

Debate

Employment Rights Act 2025

Contribution

Unemployment is rising, with youth unemployment now at 16%, and the jobs tax and the Employment Rights Act are destroying opportunities. Should Ministers not listen to the chief executive of M&S, who said that instead of “trying to run business,” the Government “should…understand business better”? Will they reduce the burden of regulation and tax, rather than continuing to increase it?
