Autumn Statement

Proceeding contribution from Emma Lewell-Buck (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 November 2016. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Autumn Statement.

I remind the Chancellor that the labour market is not working for everyone. Every single year since 2014 I have asked why this Government are allowing the continued exploitation of workers under sham umbrella companies and false self-employment. Every single year I am told that the matter is under review. As the GMB’s recent success in the court shows, these workers are fed up with waiting. Why is it that under this Government a fair day’s work never really translates into a fair day’s pay?
