Opposition day: Supporting high streets

Rejected106 ayes · 321 noes

What the vote was about

This opposition day debate considered measures to support high streets, including potential business rate relief, investment in town centres, and help for independent retailers. For Cornwall, where coastal towns rely on visitor spending and local businesses, such support is crucial.

Why this division is tracked here

Supporting high streets is directly relevant to Cornwall, where many towns depend on small shops, hospitality, and tourism for local employment.
