Proceeding contribution from Matthew Offord (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Rail Investment.
Rail Investment
I welcome the statement on behalf of my constituents who use Thameslink. However, can the Minister advise me whether he will ensure that the Government's investment is not undermined by the unions? Under the previous Government, First Capital Connect staff worked to rule and Ministers refused to intervene, because many of them were dependent on RMT and other union funding.
