Opposition Day: Housing and the Green Belt (29 Apr 1999)
James Gray: ...me if I crack on a bit. Perhaps he will have an opportunity to contribute shortly if I am reasonably brief in my remarks. I want to refer in particular to my constituency and what is happening in Swindon, not merely because of the constituency interest, but because the Government's approach to the inexorable westward growth of Swindon is a litmus test of their approach to this problem....
Oral Answers to Questions — Communities and Local Government: Local and Regional Economies: Transport (4 Dec 2017)
Justin Tomlinson: Swindon is building houses at roughly three times the rate of the national average and we wish to go further. Does the Minister support Swindon’s proposal to use the Transforming Cities fund to extend the Oxford and Cambridge rail link to Swindon, which would unlock further new homes in Swindon?
Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister: Spending Review (26 Jun 2013)
George Osborne: The people of Swindon were short-changed in many ways by the Labour Government. Under the excellent leadership provided by my hon. Friend and his colleague, our hon. Friend the Member for South Swindon (Mr Buckland), not only is Swindon’s voice heard in Parliament, but the changes this Government are making will help families in Swindon, including those with children at school.
Adjournment (Spring) (16 May 1985)
Mr Peter Snape: The hon. Gentleman is mistaken. The last major closure at Swindon was in 1962, when the old carriage and wagon capacity was closed. That was in the immediate aftermath of Dr. Beeching's report, and a Conservative Government were in power at the time. Unlike the hon. Member for Swindon, I do not wish to make a political point about the 1960s, but only 5,000 were left at the Swindon workshops...

Orders of the Day — Clause 200 (20 Jul 1972)
Mr David Stoddart: Yes, I accept that. Indeed it confirms what I am saying about Swindon. What is happening in Swindon is being repeated throughout the country and helps the case for this Amendment. I emphasise that Swindon Borough Council in terms of library opening hours and service is far superior in every respect to the service given by the county council. It is a nonsense to suppose that the library...

Great British Railways Headquarters: Swindon’s Bid (24 May 2022)
Robert Buckland: ...hon. Friend; with his powerful words, he has exemplified the point that boundaries are not important here; it is the talent that we want to encourage. As a hub of excellence and economic activity, Swindon is so important to the regional economy and—I would say—the national economy as well. The second criterion for a successful bid is connectivity. It must be: “Connected and easy to...
Orders of the Day: Communities and Local Government/Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (20 Nov 2006)
Anne Snelgrove: My right hon. Friend mentioned Swindon. Unitary authorities are good. They are welcome, but some of them, including Swindon, had difficulties when they were set up. Swindon received £2 million of Government money to get it out of its difficulties. We need unitary authorities but they must not base themselves on the old county authority model, which is where the Swindon model went wrong in...
Local Government (23 Jan 1984)
Mr Charles Morrison: I take the hon. Gentleman's point, but I must make a counter-point. Thamesdown was formed out of the old borough of Swindon and the rural district of Highworth, which was in my constituency. Before the amalgamation and reorganisation of local government, Swindon had expanded to a considerable extent into Highworth rural district. Before the time of the reorganisation, I fought to stop the...
Orders of the Day — 9TH Allotted Day: Railway Workshops (22 Mar 1983)
Mr David Stoddart: ...themselves in their present position. It is the attitude of Governments, particularly Tory Governments, that has caused the crisis that faces British Rail. The position of railway workshops in Swindon, although not the same as those in Shildon, Horwich and Temple Mills, is very similar. It is true that the Swindon workshops were not marked for closure in the most recent announcement, but...

This is my first speech in the House and I should like to say that it is an honour to be the first Member of Parliament to represent the people of South Swindon. The old Swindon constituency...

Summer Adjournment (20 Jul 2005)
Michael Wills: I am grateful for the opportunity to talk about important changes that have taken place to the borough council that serves most of my constituency. Over the past eight years, Swindon borough council has failed to deliver the services that the people of Swindon deserve. The council failed between 1997 and 2001, when the Labour party ran it, and it has failed since 2001, which was when the...
