Marcus Jones MP for Nuneaton has been awarded the Best ‘small business friendly’ MP award by the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) for 2016.

This Member of Parliament award looks at the MPs activity over a 12 month period, particularly their speeches made in Parliament that make reference to supporting Small Businesses.

Paul Miles Rogers, FSB Warwickshire and Coventry Chair said:  “The MP award is particularly important to the FSB as we know how hard MPs work to always fight for the small business cause when representing their constituency in parliament.  We were delighted with the number and range of speeches made by the MPs in the region that supported small business community, and were very impressed that Marcus spoke over 15 times in parliament about the issues faced by small firms”

Marcus Jones MP for Nuneaton said: “I am delighted to have won this award. Businesses and the people who run them create jobs and the wealth to support public services, and as a local MP I will continue to support our small businesses, wherever I can.”
