Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 June 2026

Debate

Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]

Contribution

The Minister might not be able to fix the many things we want, because they require international agreement, but it is within his power to put a rocket under Heathrow. It is a national disgrace. If airports in Bulgaria, Armenia and Bosnia-Herzegovina can offer a good service to disabled passengers then Heathrow must be made to do the same. The system for arriving disabled passengers at Heathrow is an abomination. It is a disgrace and it is despicable. In short, Heathrow does not give a damn for disabled passengers.
