£20bn is currently held up in late payments. More than the entire science budget! It should be flowing into small businesses, instead they have to spend time & money chasing it. I asked the Govt to follow Labour's policy & properly legislate to tackle late payments to SMEs. pic.twitter.com/r0uy0vi2Vv — Chi Onwurah ???? (@ChiOnwurah) May […]
