Building an NHS Fit for the Future (13 Nov 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...of change, while recycling a failed Prime Minister from the past, whose only notable recent success was to get himself on the payroll of Greensill Capital, which came at a real human cost of 305 job losses in the Daresbury Park area of my constituency. This is a company—sorry, a failed company; a former company—that is now subject to an investigation by the Serious Fraud Office. We are...

British Steel ( 8 Nov 2023)

Mike Amesbury: This is a question of national security. It is not just a commercial decision. A specific question was asked of the Minister by the shadow Secretary of State on job losses specifically in Scunthorpe. Is that figure of 2,000 correct?

Storm Babet: Flooding (23 Oct 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...round, having learned from the section 19 report, the Environment Agency, Cheshire West and Chester Council, the Canal & River Trust, the emergency services and other local councils did a sterling job to prevent it from happening again. My concern for the future, however, relates to the huge cuts in the trust, amounting to £300 million. I issue this plea to the Minister: will she look at...

Automotive Industry (12 Jul 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...with her time. All the manufacturers that she mentioned face a cliff edge in January 2024, with the 10% tariff. What are the Government going to do about it? It is desperate in terms of those jobs in our communities.

Privilege: Conduct of Right Hon. Boris Johnson (19 Jun 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...democracy. I will also be voting to show what needs to happen to the bullies who have tried to intimidate members of the Privileges Committee, whether it is the Chair, who has done a sterling job, or the four Conservative members, who have stood up to incredible intimidation and abuse. Let us send a message to those bullies. I can see two of the Committee members—the hon. Members for...

Future of Social Housing — [Ian Paisley in the Chair] (19 Apr 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...family but to other families that the housing association and I had helped. I saw their desperation, then their hope, then their happiness. It was one of those days that makes us all tick in this job. Those issues keep us awake at night, but resolving them gives us a sense of purpose and achievement. That example is one of only a few that I can refer to, because housing is not being built...

Levelling-up Fund Round 2: Bidding Process ( 7 Feb 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...but neighbouring Tatton. The council simply does not have the money to fund such an infrastructure project, and there does not seem to be any other Department for Transport scheme that would do the job. If levelling up were to mean anything, surely that bid would have been successful. The Government talk about “brownbelt first”, but 1,500 houses that would be good to go if the...

Crime and Neighbourhood Policing (31 Jan 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...of this Tory Government, who are dumping those increases on my local residents. In conclusion, I thank Cheshire police, as I did at the beginning of my remarks. They could do an even more wonderful job if they had the resources, 13,000 additional police officers and PCSOs, and the right technology. What a wonderful position that would be. It is why we need a Labour Government.

Apprenticeships: Government Support (24 Jan 2023)

Mike Amesbury: ...that young people made an impartial and realistic careers decision about the plethora of things available to them. Sadly, I fear that there is still a stigma about apprenticeships, and it is our job collectively to tackle that, whether under this Government or those of tomorrow. There has been an over-emphasis on academia and university for a considerable number of years, and under...

Children’s Social Care Workforce (20 Jul 2022)

Mike Amesbury: ...Children’s social work is personal to me. I have lived with a children’s social worker for decades—quite literally. I have seen the joy on my wife’s face when a child in care has secured a job, gone to university or got a training opportunity, when a kind-hearted local business has brought Christmas presents when there is no family to bring them, or when siblings have finally,...

Careers Guidance in Schools — [Christina Rees in the Chair] (13 Jul 2022)

Mike Amesbury: ...similar results returned from private schools. There is an increasing concern that we have arrived out of the pandemic to a different world, one that students are not being prepared for. With the jobs market evolving faster than ever, Teach First has found that nearly 80% of teachers believe their students to be less ready for the world of work than in previous years. Again, more...

Home Energy Efficiency: North of England — [Mr Laurence Robertson in the Chair] ( 6 Jul 2022)

Mike Amesbury: ...case for making homes green is clear in the levelling-up White Paper, which has been referenced. In fact, the White Paper talks about an intervention in skills creating opportunities and 240,000 jobs by 2035 for the upgrading of homes. The hon. Member for Darlington referred to 77,000 jobs in the north. It is a strong case that has political consensus. Can the Minister outline what the...

Energy-intensive Industries ( 6 Jul 2022)

Mike Amesbury: ...Vale, is located in the constituency of my hon. Friend the Member for Ellesmere Port and Neston (Justin Madders) and also has many employees there. Over 300 of those people now face losing their jobs. I know there have been discussions with a consortium that has come forward and some reference to a bridging loan, but that would require some intervention, hopefully from the Government,...

Winnington Bridge Corridor ( 5 Jul 2022)

Mike Amesbury: ...as have our residents—but it is a pathway to building more than 1,900 houses, and it will draw in about £40 million of investment from Tata Chemicals Europe, safeguarding nearly 400 construction jobs for the future. This is probably one of the best levelling-up applications that Ministers and the Department will receive, and it has cross-party support. It has to happen, and it genuinely...

Written Answers — Department for Transport: High Speed 2 Line: Cheshire ( 4 Jul 2022)

Mike Amesbury: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many jobs will be created by HS2 in (a) Northwich, (b) Cheshire and (c) the North of England.

High Speed Rail (Crewe - Manchester) Bill (20 Jun 2022)

Mike Amesbury: On connectivity and levelling up the north, my constituency includes Northwich, not far from Manchester and certainly not far from Crewe. HS2 is wonderful in terms of the job opportunities it will create in Crewe and the surrounding area, but on average it takes one hour 40 minutes to get from Northwich to Crewe, which the hon. Member will know is not actually that far up the road. Those who...
