A Shropshire MP has voiced concerns about UK companies continuing to trade with Russia, despite sanctions imposed by the Government.
Mark Pritchard, MP for The Wrekin, asked Treasury minister James Cartlidge to look at ways of discouraging companies from doing business with Russia.
During a debate in the Commons, Mr Pritchard said:"There is no doubt that the UK has led the Ukraine war effort with the United States, and there is no doubt that the UK has led the international sanctions regime, but this urgent question is about UK companies. "What more action can the Government take to encourage those companies to remove their services and businesses from Russia and to divest themselves fully, rather than just give interviews to corporate magazines and offer warm words?"
