Jerome Mayhew

Conservative — Broadland and Fakenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 December 2025

Debate

Seasonal Work

Contribution

The hon. Lady is right, but would she agree that there is a balance to be struck in every policy? Here, the balance is between employment rights on the one hand and business growth on the other. The sign of whether an economy has got it about right is when employment and growth go hand in hand. Does she share my concern that, as a result of the policies of the Government, unemployment, particularly youth unemployment, is going up month after month? Is that not a warning sign that the balance is not correct?
