Mansfield MP and Nottinghamshire County Council leader Ben Bradley MP met with Prime Minister Boris Johnson today to discuss priorities for the region.

Ben again raised the importance of levelling up the county and recently took an opportunity during Prime Minister’s Questions to share his vision for the East Midlands Freeport and to emphasise the positive impact that HS2, specifically the Toton hub, would have on the region.

During today’s meeting, Ben repeated his point and explained the benefits of having Toton as the HS2 East Midlands Hub station, arguing that it has the power to transform people’s lives across Nottinghamshire.

“I’m pleased I was able to secure some time today with the Prime Minister to ensure Nottinghamshire is at the top of Government’s levelling up agenda,” he said.

“I’m in a privileged position to be able to sit down with key decision-makers and shout up for Notts, so I’m making the most of that opportunity.”
