Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Rail Investment.


Rail Investment

I welcome the Secretary of State's announcement that what was originally called Thameslink 2000 by the previous Government will at last be delivered by this Government. Will the Secretary of State also direct those responsible to ensure not only that we have the new London Bridge station in my constituency, and all that goes with it, but that the maximum number of commuter lines are continued in south London? That is obviously of interest to people who live in London as well as those who live further afield.
