Labour — Doncaster East and the Isle of Axholme

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 June 2026

Debate

Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill

Contribution

It is really sad that we have got to that point. Does my hon. Friend agree that the whole point of making bold decisions and taking a bit of risk is that it gives people aspiration for the future? It is about getting the next generation of children to set their minds on having jobs and careers in steel and manufacturing, working on the shop floor and having camaraderie. They need to envisage a future in which people have a regular, great income and support their local community and economy.
