Labour — Swindon South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 July 2025

Debate

Road and Rail Projects

Contribution

The hon. Gentleman makes a compelling case. As I said, we prioritised the schemes that we have announced today on the basis of the ones that will deliver the greatest improvement to passengers most quickly. I know that there will be other schemes worthy of investment, but that is why we have not announced the particular service and scheme that he wants today.
