• 12 Apr 2025: Parliamentary Speech

  Looking ahead, many big questions remain unanswered. Will the Government immediately designate UK-made steel a nationally strategic asset? Will they be using direct reduced iron, and, if so, will that form part of the UK’s plans alongside protecting the production of virgin steel at Scunthorpe? When will the Government bring forward a comprehensive plan to ensure that more British steel is used in vital infrastructure projects, from defence to renewable energy? Will Ministers work shoulder to shoulder with our European and Commonwealth partners to tear down trade barriers, including by negotiating a customs union by 2030? Will they develop initiatives to retrain and upskill workers across the country as we transition to greener methods of steel production? How do the Government intend to respond to calls from UK Steel for the Government to achieve the lowest electricity prices in Europe, parity with competitors on network charges, and wholesale electricity market reform?

  to ensure that this House had a debate on the climate emissions framework

  And yet, it has been reported this morning that the Government intend to give the green light to Luton airport expansion via a letter on the national infrastructure planning website at 2 pm—in less than three hours—with no debate at all. Is that true? If so, why has there been no debate in Government time about the climate emissions framework, as the Leader of the House had promised?

  ✈️ Airport expansion should not happen before a climate emissions framework is in place, inc at Luton. I pressed the Commons Leader for a debate on any emissions framework *first* - but all that was promised was a debate on any airport expansion decision itself ???? https://x.com/libdemdaisy/status/1889243460219158759/video/1 [Source]

  However, as we debate the new charter, it is also worth reflecting on how fiscal rules are treated in our politics more broadly. Although they are absolutely necessary for economic stability, there is too often a sense that fiscal targets can be arbitrary and that they are chosen based on what is convenient for each Government; previous Conservative Chancellors changed the fiscal rules five times in seven years between 2015 and 2022. What often seems to be lacking throughout the process is a sober, pragmatic dialogue about what the best fiscal rules are for our economy, for everything from growth and investment to jobs and net zero—a discussion perhaps ideally not affected by politics, but focused on what is right for our economy.

  ✈️ ⚠️ It’s rumoured that the Government might give the go-ahead to Luton airport expansion tomorrow. ???? This would fly in the face of economists and the govt’s own climate advisors I challenged Ministers on this here???? https://x.com/libdemdaisy/status/1884238391174390201/video/1 [Source]
