Andrew Griffith

Conservative — Arundel and South Downs

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 November 2025

Debate

Supporting High Streets

Contribution

My right hon. Friend is absolutely right. One only has to look at the wording of the motion we are debating and that of the Government amendment. We Conservatives talk about lifting burdens, removing business rates, cutting red tape, and taking more action to address crime on our high streets. The Labour party talks about compulsory purchase, more grants and more subsidies—it is not interested in lifting the burden on business.
