Proceeding contribution from Lord Higgins (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 2 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill.

London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

The noble Lord provokes me into commenting about an issue on which I had decided not to intervene. The railway station to the south of the Palace of Westminster, Waterloo, is in a most appalling state. Anyone arriving there emerges into something that is unbelievably dirty, filthy and horrible. They are then confronted with that dreadful thing in the middle of the roundabout south of Westminster Bridge. We ought to ensure that that kind of eyesore is cleared up—certainly by 2012.
