Labour — Bishop Auckland

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 October 2026

Debate

Equitable Life Policyholders: Compensation

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for the excellent job he is doing of speaking on behalf of our constituents. A constituent of mine, who wishes to remain anonymous, told me that he would today be receiving £20,000 a year had he invested his money elsewhere. He invested it where he did only because he believed the state was saying that it was safe to do so. I thank my hon. Friend for fighting on behalf of those people. I hope the Government will listen carefully to the recommendations.
