Labour — Derby North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 January 2026

Debate

Transport Connectivity: Midlands and North Wales

Contribution

Does the right hon. Lady agree that the issue is not just fares but routes? Derbyshire had a 60% loss of bus routes in the 15 years up to 2023. Would she say that it is hugely disappointing that for such a long time, most of which was under her party’s Government, bus routes have been slashed?
