Labour — Calder Valley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 November 2025

Debate

Welfare Spending

Contribution

Conservative Members talking about what they would do in government is like me talking about having the ability to take a penalty in a world cup final. The Conservatives left us with 1.4 million PIP claimants for mental health reasons and 1.2 million on mental health waiting lists—that is 217,000 people in the midlands, where the hon. Gentleman’s constituency is.
