Read our privacy policy An MP has called for action to protect young people from resellers charging thousands of pounds for Taylor Swift tickets. Labour former minister Kevin Brennan said that “as a father of a Swiftie”, he was “appalled” to see tickets of the American singer’s upcoming Eras tour being advertised at hugely inflated prices on secondary ticketing sites. Speaking at business questions, he asked for a debate on the practice and asked Commons Leader Penny Mordaunt why the Government “hasn’t done more to protect our daughters from this sort of rip-off merchants”. MP for Cardiff West Mr Brennan told the Commons: “Could we have a debate on secondary ticketing because as a father of a Swiftie, and I know the deputy shadow leader is also a mother of a Swiftie, I was appalled to see that within an hour of tickets going on sale for the Taylor Swift concert at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, a ticket was on sale in the lower tier for £3,352 pounds on Viagogo.
