Antony is committed to lobbying on behalf of all businesses within Burnley and Padiham.

Wednesday, 21 October, 2020

Antony Higginbotham used the Opposition Day Debate on Economic Support for areas facing additional covid-19 restrictions to outline his commitment to lobby on behalf of the businesses of Burnley and Padiham.

Speaking in the chamber he said:

I say to all the businesses in Burnley and Padiham - I am here to lobby for you.

Labour ignored the North both in Government and in opposition - that's why I was elected to represent you. Because I promised never again to allow our borough to languish as they allowed. I promised to level up! And that is exactly what I remain focused on.

I will never stop lobbying Government, publicly and privately to ensure they understand our local economy and understand the support that we need here.

Labour's divisive attempts to pit North v South, Lancashire v Manchester are dangerous and typical of a party that has lost the argument.
