Labour — Leeds West and Pudsey

Speaking in the House of Commons on 1 July 2025

Debate

Transport Infrastructure Funding

Contribution

I really welcome the fact that the right hon. Gentleman supports the investment that this Labour Government are making in transport and infrastructure after the 14 of years neglect by his party. We have increased transport spending by 1.9% per year in real terms in every year of this spending review period, benefiting all parts of the country, including Yorkshire, where both he and I have the honour and privilege of being Members of Parliament.
