Labour — Derby North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 September 2025

Debate

Regional Transport Inequality

Contribution

I am just about to finish. If the UK is a body, Derby is geographically at its heart and is asking to have the same chance as everywhere else to be connected. We need to maintain our change of direction to reduce the inequality in the spend per person on transport, stay on track towards the reduction, and ultimately the elimination, of regional transport inequality, and deliver fair funding for transport.
