Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Sojan Joseph (Labour), on Monday, 13 July 2026, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 2 members in total.


Operation Brock

That this House express its disappointment that Operation Brock will be in place on the M20 from 14 July until 24 August; notes that the continued use of the contraflow system causes delays and widespread disruption to residents and local businesses in East Kent; further notes that in 2025 the cost of deploying and operating Operation Brock was more than £3 million; is concerned that despite reassurances that planning is underway to find alternatives, Operation Brock continues to be used during the school holidays; and therefore urges the Kent and Medway Resilience Forum to work with National Highways, the Department for Transport, and other agencies to deliver a workable long-term solution that removes the need for Operation Brock.
