Bakerloo Line Extension (24 Mar 2021)

Neil Coyle: ...would support regeneration across the United Kingdom. I will give just one example of how the Bakerloo line extension would contribute to the national recovery. The Prime Minister has visited the Siemens plant in Goole up in Yorkshire—more than once, I think. That site is the expected place of manufacture of the trains and carriages that would run on the Bakerloo line in London....

Transport for the North: Funding (17 Mar 2021)

Diana R. Johnson: ...decides. This is why we want straight talking from the Prime Minister, just as we are famed for in Yorkshire. In Hull, we have worked hard through the austerity decade to make our own luck, with Siemens and the energy estuary, a growing tech sector, city of culture status and exciting projects like the Hull lagoon and Maritime Hull. However, when it comes to transport investment, we are...

Budget Statement - Motion to Take Note (12 Mar 2021)

Baroness Bottomley of Nettlestone: ...the Prime Minister’s words, are crucial. We can see in the Humber how money is already being used to convert the Alexandra Dock, the centrepiece of Green Port Hull, which has been transformed by Siemens Gamesa to manufacture phenomenal zero-carbon energy-producing mega turbine blades. With all the other measures in the Budget, there is a note of optimism and hope, but like others, I must...

Income Tax (Charge) ( 9 Mar 2021)

Martin Vickers: .... There has been criticism from the Opposition that the money is going to the wrong places. Take the Humber: I do not think there were any complaints from this side of the House when Hull got the Siemens investment. Now there has been an evening up. These are major moves forward, all of which I welcome. My thanks to the Chancellor.

Covid-19 (22 Feb 2021)

Emma Hardy: ...Business Secretary, my right hon. Friend the Member for Doncaster North (Edward Miliband). Back in 2008, when he was involved in some work in Hull, we signed a memorandum of understanding with Siemens that led to Siemens creating the wind turbine factory in Hull, which has just now doubled in size, giving our city great news. I am hoping that he can be our same token of good luck when he...

Towns Fund ( 4 Feb 2021)

Andrew Percy: ...considerable issues with skilling people up to take many of the jobs being created locally. However, we have had a lot of good news in recent years, not least of which is the massive investment by Siemens, which is busy constructing a rail factory here that will produce the trains for the London underground. There is also huge investment from Croda, and that has happened with Government...

Telecommunications Infrastructure (Leasehold Property) Bill - Third Reading: Amendment 1 (28 Jan 2021)

Lord Alton of Liverpool: ...Chinese Communist Party in Xinjiang, where 1 million Uighur are incarcerated and used as slave labour. Parallels were drawn, during the course of that debate, with the way in which companies such as Siemens had used labourers in Nazi concentration camps to build an industrial empire, and the way in which Stalin used gulag labour to power his economic programmes on the backs of those who...

Questions to the Mayor of London — Piccadilly Line Signalling upgrade: Piccadilly Line Signalling upgrade ( 8 Jan 2021)

Sadiq Khan: ...to systems already in place on the Victoria, Jubilee and Northern lines, would enable up to 36 trains per hour and maximise the benefits of the new fleet of Piccadilly line trains to be built by Siemens in Goole, Humberside. While the Spending Review wasn’t explicit about funding the new signalling, the TfL funding settlement letter from the Secretary of State on 31 October made it clear...

UK-Japan Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (25 Nov 2020)

John Spellar: ...would show concern about that. Hitachi came to Newton Aycliffe and built a major train manufacturing unit, employing large numbers of people, but who did we give the next agreement for trains to? To Siemens, which did not have any manufacturing capability in the UK. We need much more joined-up government. That is what other countries, particularly Japan but many others, expect of us. There...

3. Business Statement and Announcement (24 Nov 2020)

Joyce Watson: ...is the Welsh Government that needs to give it the green light, whereas my understanding is that the hold-up is because the UK Government has not made a decision between the Powys site and the rival Siemens site in Scunthorpe. 

United Kingdom Internal Market Bill - Report (1st Day): Amendment 1 (18 Nov 2020)

Baroness Randerson: ...institutes, civil society organisations and academic institutions. Its corporate members have a collective turnover of £550 billion a year and include Associated British Ports, Tesco, John Lewis, Siemens, Michelin and many more household names. The group wants this Bill substantially amended. It says specifically that, although it wants frictionless intra-UK trade, “these objectives...

Carbon Emissions - Question ( 9 Nov 2020)

Lord Baker of Dorking: ...wind farms? Environmental engineering is not taught in any of our schools. As a result, a group of university technology colleges is going to launch an environmental energy day, supported by Siemens and other industrialists, to secure a route for students to get into either employment or university in this area. Will the Minister support that day?

RAF Valley: Funding and Employment: Jet Zero Council — [Mrs Maria Miller in the Chair] (14 Oct 2020)

Andrew Selous: ...ensure that the new technologies are used across the industrial networks in Newcastle, Lincoln, Derby, Bristol, Glasgow and Lancashire as it partners with Rolls-Royce, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Siemens, Dyson and the Aviation Technology Institute. The new laboratory will co-locate with the aviation impact accelerator, the design of which is based on what Cambridge has learned from Dame...

Trade Bill - Committee (5th Day): Amendment 68 (13 Oct 2020)

Lord Alton of Liverpool: ...now. Think of Nazi slave labour and beneficiaries such as IBM and Volkswagen, which even built a labour camp next to one of its factories to ensure a supply of labour. Think of Hugo Boss, Kodak and Siemens; Siemens even ran factories inside concentration camps, including at Auschwitz, Buchenwald, Ravensbrück and Sachsenhausen. Extermination through labour: what is happening to the Uighurs...

Questions to the Mayor of London — City Hall proposed move [4]: City Hall proposed move [4] ( 7 Oct 2020)

Sadiq Khan: ...1.75m 2019-20 £900k The low income in 2016-17 was because the property was not owned by the GLA until November 2016. The reduction in income in 2019-20 was as a result of the mid-year surrender by Siemens of their lease, under which they paid rent of £1.75 million per annum

Written Answers — Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy: Wind Power ( 8 Sep 2020)

Kwasi Kwarteng: ...does not hold this information for the global proportion of turbine production. Currently, the UK has capability in the production of wind turbine blades, foundations, and cables, most notably the Siemens Gamesa and MHI Vestas blade factories in Hull and the Isle of Wight respectively, employing over 1,500 highly skilled workers. The industry has committed in the Offshore Wind Sector...

Telecommunications Infrastructure (Leasehold Property) Bill - Report: Amendment 5 (29 Jun 2020)

Lord Balfe: ...a lot of reading during this lockdown. One of my recent books has been the last volume of Volker Ullrich’s German account of the life of Hitler—Hitler Downfall 1939-45. It showed that not only Siemens but a vast quantity—virtually all—of German industry was behind the Government, using slave labour and knowing exactly what it was doing. I do not believe that Huawei does not know...

Caravan Industry: Hull and East Riding (15 Jun 2020)

Nadhim Zahawi: ...on the Humber south bank, is one of the UK’s most significant industrial and manufacturing clusters. The hon. Member for Kingston upon Hull East rightly reminded us of the capabilities of Siemens Gamesa. Of course, there is Ørsted in the offshore wind sector, RB in health and Wren Kitchens in manufacturing, together with a strong small and medium-sized business base in the region. That...

Telecommunications Infrastructure (Leasehold Property) Bill - Virtual Committee (1st Day): Amendment 9 (19 May 2020)

Lord Alton of Liverpool: ...ten Boom’s memoir, The Hiding Place. After sheltering Jews from the Nazi regime, Ms ten Boom was sent to Ravensbrück concentration camp. She describes her experience of doing forced labour for Siemens in the camps where her sister and many others died. The Holocaust saw state-sponsored mass enslavement on an appalling scale. Ironically, on the morning following Holocaust Memorial Day,...
