London, 12 November 2024: Taxpayers Against Poverty (TAP) welcomes the report “A Blueprint for a 21st Century Parliament” produced by TAP partner Compassion in Politics and the campaigning group 50:50 Parliament. This is important to TAP as we want to see a more effective and compassionate Parliament that will give priority to the needs of the 14 million people living in poverty in the UK. The report has been submitted to the newly formed Modernisation Committee at their request
The report provides an immediate starting point for modernising the UK Parliament into a more inclusive, supportive, and effective working institution. The report has received the backing of many people across politics including Alastair Campbell, Kim Leadbeater MP, former MP Caroline Lucas and former Home Secretary Amber Rudd.
