Proceeding contribution from Robert Flello (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 June 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Security.
Energy Security
Does my right hon. Friend understand the great sadness felt by my constituents and others in north Staffordshire? They sit on vast reserves of coal, but the mines were closed in the 1980s by the party that now talks about what should have been done in the past in terms of investing for the future—[Interruption.] My constituents are frustrated that those resources are there, but it appears that nothing will be done with them in the future.
