Proceeding contribution from Lincoln Jopp (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 September 2025. It occurred during Debate on Employment Rights: Impact on Businesses.
Employment Rights: Impact on Businesses
A few months ago, The Times invited the Chancellor of the Exchequer to address its CEO summit. Just before the Chancellor was called up to the stage, the host reminded the audience that the Chancellor had promised that this would be the most pro-business Government ever. The host then invited the chief executive officers—I think there were 200 of them—to say how many of them, having seen the Labour Government at work, think that it is pro-business. Not a single hand went up. Is the hon. Member aware of that?
