Proceeding contribution from Andy McDonald (Labour) 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

If workers are in good, well-paid work, they can go on to lead good, flourishing lives, and they will return that as a dividend through their collaboration with their employer. They will also be in a position to be more active in the economy. We know that when working people have money, they are able to spend it and generate activity in the economy. Does the Minister agree?
