Business question from Martin Linton (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 May 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
When the House returns, may we have a debate on the problems of industrial firms in London? The largest industrial concern in my constituency is Young’s Brewery, which told its employees this week that, having failed to find an alternative site in Wandsworth, it is moving to Bedford. Many of us feel that the departure of the Ram brewery, which has been there for 425 years, will rip the heart out of Wandsworth. Should we not debate how we can keep firms like Young’s in the communities that they serve, before the developers turn us all into identical and soulless suburbs?
