Proceeding contribution from Mike Kane (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 January 2025. It occurred during Urgent question on Airport Expansion.
Airport Expansion
My hon. Friend is exactly right: we have to join up the modes of transport. We have had a broken transport system as a result of 14 years of complete under-investment. Whether we are talking about rail connectivity to Glasgow, what will happen if a Heathrow development consent order comes forward, or just getting Northern trains working across the north of England, linking up Leeds Bradford, Liverpool, Manchester and Newcastle will be a key start to improving jobs and growth at those airports.
