Finance (No. 2) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Peter Dowd (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 April 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance (No. 2) Bill.

A million people in employment are on zero-hours contracts. Millions of people are in insecure work. Of course I welcome employment, but it has to be

secure, well-paid, reasonable, sensible employment that allows people to sustain their families. Under this Government, millions of people are unable to sustain an ordinary life with the wages they receive. That is the reality.
