Labour — North West Leicestershire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 April 2025

Debate

East Midlands: Local Authorities and Economic Growth

Contribution

When we talk about devolution, we cannot forget Leicestershire, which is in a devolution desert. My constituency of North West Leicestershire borders both Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. We have an international airport, but, significantly, we have no passenger rail. Does the Minister agree that actual and effective public transport is key to unlocking growth across the whole east midlands?
