Kemi Badenoch stated that statutory maternity pay is excessive and a function of tax, advocating for reduced government interference in personal financial matters.
Badenoch emphasized the need for more personal responsibility, recalling a time when maternity pay didn't exist, yet birth rates were higher.
She argued that businesses struggle due to high regulatory burdens, saying, 'We're taking from one group of people and giving to another. This, in my view, is excessive.'
Badenoch critiqued the government’s approach as technocratic micro policy management, stating, 'That is not what is going to get this country growing.'
