Watch: Climate Assembly Report Speech

Thursday, 26 November, 2020

Watch: Spending Review

Wednesday, 25 November, 2020

This week I asked the Transport Secretary why more has not been done to reform airline insolvency laws to reduce the risk of what happened to Thomas Cook happening again and when the Government will implement the recommendations of the Airline Insolvency Review.
