Commons ChamberI would be delighted to meet my hon. Friend to discuss those important suggestions, and I would be more than happy to visit his constituency.
I thank the Secretary of State for giving way; she is being incredibly generous with her time. I want to take her back to the fact that the Bill lacks any legal guarantees to protect our food standards from being undermined. The Conservative party’s manifesto may have referenced that, but the Bill does not, so will she give us a cast-iron guarantee that the Bill will protect those standards?
Our manifesto is clear. We will stick to the commitments in our manifesto. The Prime Minister reiterated that only today.
