Standing up for the United Kingdom

Neil with other Conservative Cumbrian MPs

As an MP at the border, I am passionate about our United Kingdom staying together. I will work with colleagues along the border and across the border to ensure that Scotland and England flourish in partnership. Through initiatives like the Borderlands Partnership, we can bring investment to this area, north and south of the border. I am strongly supportive of the proposals to extend the Borders Railway south from Tweedbank, through Longtown and on to Carlisle.
