Labour — Cardiff East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 April 2026

Debate

Clean Energy

Contribution

Upgrading and expanding the electricity network is not optional; is a national imperative and we cannot afford to delay—[Interruption.] The hon. Gentleman asked me a question, so he might want to listen to the answer.
