Labour — Reading Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 June 2026

Debate

Railways Bill

Contribution

I urge the hon. Gentleman to reconsider his point about the importance of building near railway stations. My experience, and that of many other Members along the length of the Elizabeth line, is that it is generating a huge amount of economic growth, which is very significant in our communities. It is also reusing a great deal of brownfield land, and I hope that would also benefit the hon. Gentleman’s constituents.
