The Tories and Boris Johnson have the audacity to hide behind the cost of living crisis - which they have done nothing to combat - and the war in Ukraine, rather than be held accountable for Partygate. Are we to believe he is best to lead the UK?
Brownings the Bakers, in my constituency, electricity prices are increasing from £4,000 to £11,000 per week. For fixed costs, they've been offered a staggering £17,000 per week for a two-year contract! The Chancellor's disgraceful response conveys he and his Government are doing nothing to support businesses like Brownings.
My constituent was forced to flee domestic abuse. Unknown to her, a UC advance loan was taken out by her ex-partner and the money was paid directly into his bank. The DWP is saying she is liable for money she has never seen a penny of. I raised the case at Business Questions.
Pumped-storage hydro is a completely renewable source that combats our dependency on gas. I called on the UK Government to support SSE's plans to build Coire Glas in the highlands to achieve this.
We have a bizarre situation whereby some of those fleeing Ukraine in need of humanitarian aid could already be here, in the UK. Surely a better use of resources would be to bring those with family members over and then carry out further security whilst they are safe in the UK?
Pensioner poverty is at a 15-year high and the removal of the triple-lock is set to take a further £30bn out of their pockets. The UK Government must act on this injustice to prevent even more pensioners from plunging into poverty.
