Conservative MP @EstherMcVey1 has forced a debate in Parliament today on the future of our cement industry. The problem? 🤔 This debate misses the face tens of thousands of jobs rely on UK cement and aggregates. Workers are clear - it’s time to save our cement.

Remember: 📈We import over 1/3 of the cement we use from countries like Algeria, Turkey, Ireland and Spain - this was just 10% a few decades ago. 🏠 There is no house-building revolution without a secure and green domestic cement industry.

✅ Carbon capture and the Peak Cluster gives the UK an opportunity to be a world leader in green cement - creating and securing working class jobs. Offshoring the carbon emissions of cement production to other countries is bad for the environment and bad for jobs.
