Louise Haigh

Labour — Sheffield Heeley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 November 2024

Debate

Rail Performance

Contribution

My hon. Friend is absolutely right. The strikes were costing us £20 million a day in lost revenue. That is aside from the economic impact of people coming off the railways and not making journeys to work, to see friends and family or to visit other towns and cities. Settling the pay disputes that were pervading our railways has already paid for itself.
