Rushanara has repeatedly called on the Chancellor to provide support to over 3 million people who have been excluded from the Government’s financial support schemes. This includes new starters, self-employed workers, freelance workers and includes a sizable proportion of my constituents.

She has joined the recently formed Excluded UK APPG to work with colleagues on this issue.

Rushanara has spoken out about this issue in a number of Treasury Sessions, in parliamentary debates and in media interviews including an ITV piece which you can watch here.
