Proceeding contribution from Jack Straw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 June 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

It is the duty of all of us to represent our constituents, but the hon. Gentleman needs to be a bit careful. Current investment in road schemes—I bet this is true of his constituency—far exceeds that in previous years. Other places are competing for much needed funds, not least my constituency, where famously 4,000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire were identified 40 years ago. Not all of them have subsequently been filled in.
