Dr Caroline Johnson

Conservative — Sleaford and North Hykeham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 27 November 2025

Debate

Government Transparency and Accountability

Contribution

I understand what the Minister is trying to say with his whataboutery, and his “Somebody else might have done it first,” but the point is that his Government are in government, and they are not delivering on their promises. The ministerial code already requires Ministers to be open and transparent, and to answer the questions, and they are not doing that. A tightened-up ministerial code will not be worth the paper it is written, given that the current one is not being adhered to.
