Labour — Birmingham Ladywood

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 June 2026

Debate

Illegal High Street Trading

Contribution

Dodgy shops are blighting our high streets—we all see them in our constituencies—so this Government have announced a new high street organised crime taskforce, investing £30 million in law enforcement action. That will fund more officers and a nationwide unit based in the National Crime Agency, and will strengthen powers to tackle these criminals.
