Mr Peter Bedford

Conservative — Mid Leicestershire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 January 2026

Debate

Youth Unemployment

Contribution

I absolutely agree with my hon. Friend. Another campaign I have been articulating is on financial education. That is also key to unlocking opportunity for many of our young people. Only us Conservatives believe in young people. We are on the side of hard-pressed taxpayers, we are on the side of small businesses, and now more than ever we are on the side of young people. I am a Conservative because I believe that economic freedom comes through hard work.
