Conservative — Bromley and Biggin Hill

Speaking in the House of Commons on 25 March 2026

Debate

Proposed Visitor Levy

Contribution

As ever, my right hon. Friend is making an excellent speech. One of the concerns that businesses have is that this policy was not in the Government’s manifesto, so they are now trying to prepare for something that has come as a surprise. There has been no consultation on this levy, so by introducing it now the Government are making a very difficult situation even worse. Does my right hon. Friend agree that this is not the best way to help businesses thrive?
