🚨 IT’S FINALLY LIVE! PLEASE SIGN AND SHARE OUR EXCLUDEDUK PETITION 🚨 After waiting for it to be approved and published, I can finally say it: My Parliamentary petition calling for financial redress for the 3.8 million taxpayers excluded from Covid-19 financial support is now LIVE!!! ✍️ PLEASE SIGN IT HERE: petition.parliament.uk/petit… The petition calls on the Government to: “Establish a fair financial redress scheme for the 3.8 million taxpayers excluded from Covid-19 financial support, reflecting the support received by comparable taxpayers and businesses.” For more than six years, millions of people who dutifully paid into the system have been fighting to be heard. Newly self-employed people. Company directors. Freelancers. New starters. Those denied furlough. PAYE freelancers. People earning over the SEISS threshold. Those affected by maternity, pensions and other circumstances. People lost income, businesses, homes and financial security while others in comparable circumstances received substantial Government support. The consequences did not simply disappear when lockdown ended. This petition is our opportunity to show Parliament that the excluded have NOT gone away. 📣 WE NEED 10,000 SIGNATURES for a Government response. 📣 WE NEED 100,000 SIGNATURES for the petition to be considered for debate in Parliament. So please do three things: ✅ SIGN IT ✅ SHARE IT ✅ Ask everyone you know to sign and share it too Please share it on Facebook, LinkedIn, X, WhatsApp, email and anywhere else you can. Tag your MP. Tag journalists. Tag broadcasters. Tag anyone who supported the excluded. We need to get this in front of as many people as possible. After six years of campaigning, we are still here. We are still fighting. And we will continue until the 3.8 million excluded taxpayers finally receive the recognition, justice and financial redress they deserve. Dutifully paid in. Deliberately left out. 👉 petition.parliament.uk/petit… #ExcludedUK #ExcludedUKPetition #FinancialRedress #CovidSupport #3Point8Million #DutifullyPaidInDeliberatelyLeftOut @RichardNewby3 @switherdenMP @MP4Stratford @AlPinkerton @gregsmith_uk @SadieMHarris @ExcludedFighter @JohnMartinComic @Euan4Falkirk @iqbalmohamedMP @JakeBenRichards @KimJohnsonMP @BeaversLorraine @OllyGloverLD @PaulKohlerSW19 @RebeccaHarrisMP @RosieDuffield1 @RupaHuq @SorchaEastwood @StephenGethins @SteveDarlingMP @timfarron @VikkiSlade72 @WillForster @ZoeFranklinLD @APPGGapsSupport @UKLabour @LibDems @Conservatives @theSNP @reformparty_uk @thisisyourparty @Plaid_Cymru @TheGreenParty @thatginamiller @MartinSLewis @JohnDCaudwell @itvnews @GMB @GBNEWS @BigIssue @LBC @itvnews @BBCNews @PA @AP @BBCBreakfast

"You've had eight months to do the sums, why are three million people still excluded?": Nick Ferrari challenges the Chancellor on why so many people are still unable to get financial help. @NickFerrariLBC

FAIR. PROPORTIONATE. DOABLE. In this video from our ExcludedUK livestream on 24 June 2024, @AndyBurnham said: “I think there are ways we can start to frame financial asks that I think are fair, proportionate and doable.” Those words matter even more today. Andy has been our loudest political champion from the beginning of the ExcludedUK campaign. He has recognised that the exclusion of 3.8 million UK taxpayers from parity of Covid-19 financial support was not simply unfortunate. It was an injustice that must be rectified. He told us: “The public see you and the public support you.” He promised: “We will work with you to make sure that the excluded is recognised as one of the injustices that this country needs to rectify.” He also made clear: “I supported you back in the pandemic, and we support you now. The passage of time doesn’t change that.” Now, as Prime Minister, Andy has the opportunity to work with ExcludedUK and the Gaps in Covid-19 Financial Support APPG to turn those words into action. We are ready to discuss financial asks that are fair, proportionate and achievable. After more than six years, the 3.8 million cannot simply be written off. Businesses, homes, livelihoods and futures were lost. More than 40 members of our community saw no other way out than to take their own lives. Recognition is fair. Accountability is proportionate. Justice is doable. Prime Minister, let us begin that work.

Small firms are the engine of growth. This Government keeps stalling them. Before my election to Parliament I spent the best part of two decades working with businesses. I learned that a healthy economy isn't measured in Treasury forecasts. It's measured by whether a business owner can see a reason to take on an apprentice or invest in a new machine. Right now, too many can't. 📉 Just 18% of small firms expect to grow this year, the lowest since the FSB's index began in 2014! 💷 A small firm with nine staff on the National Living Wage has seen its employment bill rise by £25,850 a year since January 2025! 🏪 63% of UK firms now say tax is their biggest concern! The jobs tax, higher business rates, more red tape and sky-high energy costs. Each one makes it harder for a local employer to give a young person a chance, the kind of chance I relied on growing up. The Chancellor must listen to small businesses before the next Budget. Read my full piece here 👇 peterbedford.uk/news/small-f…

👇 Highlights from the #ExcludedUK Pre Budget Event on Wednesday. Mr Sunak must surely be able to spare the two minutes to listen. The Chancellor would be doing the country a complete disservice if he ignores those left behind on March 3rd. It's time to bring us in from the cold.

This is another example of a scandal and utter injustice to millions of people. The #ExcludedUK deserve justice. #excludedscandal @ExcludedFighter @ExcludedUnity @ExcludedNeedJu1

It has been an honour to have served as Shadow Chancellor for almost two years, alongside an exceptionally strong team and a great leader in Kemi. I am especially proud of the work we have done to rebuild the Conservatives' economic credibility - an issue on which we now consistently lead in the polls - and to have developed the start of a radical and deliverable plan to turn our economy around. If we care at all about people’s living standards, about delivering world class public services, a society at peace with itself and fully protecting our country in a challenging world, then we need a credible Conservative plan to deliver far stronger economic growth. That starts with establishing fiscal responsibility and taking the tough choices on spending, allowing us to get on top of our debt and to cut taxes to support growth. I am proud that we have made an important start with our pledges to abolish Stamp Duty, cut business rates and increase the incentives for people (especially young people) to work, as well as tackling the overbearing state that is so often holding us back. The Conservative party must continue to champion an approach which is both radical and deliverable. It is essential that the next Conservative government does things very differently, backing business like never before and getting government out of the way. The Conservatives have a good story to tell on this now and one that I know will continue to grow stronger and stronger under Kemi’s leadership. I am now looking forward to continuing to make a real contribution to the Conservative team in parliament and beyond, to build and amplify our vision for Britain, from the backbenches.

I'd like to say a huge thank you to the 100s of you who got in touch with me prior to my debate today to tell me your story about the injustices the #excluded are facing. I will continue to keep the pressure on, as will other MPs & @APPGGapsSupport. Please don't give up hope
