Lewis Cocking

Conservative — Broxbourne

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 January 2026

Debate

Youth Unemployment

Contribution

My hon. Friend does not look a day over 30, so it cannot be his 40th birthday coming up. Does my hon. Friend agree that we need to go further? Of course we need economic growth. We need to tax jobs less and let the people outside create that economic growth, but we also need to look at the education system so that we prepare young people better when they leave education for the world of work. That is what employers are crying out for.
