It was great to welcome the PM to Newton Aycliffe and show him just one of the hundreds of manufacturing firms based in the town and across my constituency.
We discussed the fantastic work done by Hitachi and the Prime Minister saw first-hand the value of Hitachi Railβs investment in the North Eastβwhich delivers over Β£400 million economic benefit for the region and UK supply chain.
I welcome the PMβs commitment to expanding our existing rail infrastructure and doing it in a green way that makes full use of our highly-skilled workforce here in the North East.
