Affordability and government policy

For some reason, a motion on the cost of living crisis (M242, pp 131) was debated in this section, I note it because of the coherence and power of the moving speech by Margaret Lewis which gets to the bottom of the failure of the Starmer government and in my mind should have been the centre piece of Gary’s speech. See the youtube clip. The CEC asked for referral as the motion focussed on machinery of government and not on policy outcomes.
