Tories & Labour Owe Apology for Empty Dome - Teather

January 12, 2005 12:04 PM
Sarah Teather MP in the House of Commons

Sarah Teather says that both the Tories and Labour should apologise for the Dome

Commenting on today's NAO report into the Millennium Dome, which reveals that attempts to sell it off 'proved a complete fiasco', Sarah Teather MP, Liberal Democrat Spokesperson for London, said:

"The Millennium Dome remains a shrine to both Conservative and Labour Governments' incompetence and ineptitude.

"Millions of pounds of taxpayer's money have been thrown away on a project that failed to provide any positive lasting legacy for London's East End.

"Ministers had a big idea with no long term plan or vision which means the whole thing has been a whopping waste of money. Both the Tories, for coming up with the idea of the Dome, and Labour, for following it through, owe a big apology to the capital for an expensive empty tent."

    If you are a resident of the Brent Central constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
