Labour — Erewash

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 November 2025

Debate

Supporting High Streets

Contribution

In my area, the Conservative administration brought in a parking charge after Labour campaigned extensively for free parking. I was reassured by the local council recently, because the data showed that parking charges actually made no difference at all to footfall. Could the right hon. Gentleman comment on the fact that, in many areas, small parking charges do not make an awful lot of difference?
