Proceeding contribution from Peter Gibson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 21 January 2022. It occurred during Debate on bill on Taxis and Private Hire Vehicles (Safeguarding and Road Safety) Bill.


Taxis and Private Hire Vehicles (Safeguarding and Road Safety) Bill

As my hon. Friend knows from my previous speeches in this House, Darlington is the birthplace of the railways. In 1825, Locomotion No.1 pulled the very first passenger train across Skerne Bridge—the oldest, longest-established and continuously used railway bridge in the world, and heritage site—in my constituency. I can think of no better place for Great British Railways to be based than Darlington.
