Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 December 2011. It occurred during Backbench debate on Communities and Local Government.
Communities and Local Government
For the hon. Gentleman's information, I was born in Chippenham, thus I have an interest in it. I applaud what he is trying to do. Out-of-town developments not only disfigure beautiful landscapes in a beautiful area; they also create vastly increased traffic and environmental consequences for everyone else, as well as a complete hollowing out and destruction of the town centre, which becomes the home for charity shops and banks—and very little else.
