Achieving Economic Growth
Question put forthwith (Standing Order No. 33), That the amendment be made.
Amendment:
Amendment proposed: (s), at the end of the Question to add:
“but respectfully regret that the Gracious Speech fails to include bills that protect workers’ rights, tackle the cost of living crisis, or the climate emergency; further regret that the Gracious Speech does not contain provision to uplift benefits and implement a windfall tax on companies which are benefiting from significantly increased profits as a result of impacts associated with the pandemic or the current international situation; and reject the proposals both for a Brexit Freedoms Bill, which will undermine devolution, and the Bill of Rights, which will weaken human rights protections.”—(Ian Blackford.)
