Government PPE Contracts

Proceeding contribution from Angela Rayner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 December 2022. It occurred during Opposition day on Government PPE Contracts.

I thank the hon. Member for his point, and he is absolutely right. The Fire Brigades Union members were in Parliament and outside it today. They are frustrated, like many others who have been told that there is not money to give them a pay rise and that, actually, they are going to get a real-terms pay cut. But at the same time, billions of pounds has been wasted. As I said in my opening remarks, £770,000 a day has gone on storing this equipment. It is not acceptable to most people and most members of the public.
