Proceeding contribution from Pat McFadden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 March 2026. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Youth Unemployment.


Youth Unemployment

Once again, the Liberal Democrats speak against the prioritisation of youth. We are for training throughout the system and throughout the age range, but we have to make a decision about where to prioritise it with a public budget. I have unashamedly made the decision to prioritise young people, and I think that is the right thing to do.
