Greg Stone today challenged Conservative "Shadow Minister for Tyneside" Alan Duncan MP over the Tories' professed commitment to the North East. Following a speech at Newcastle's Centre for Life, Greg asked Alan Duncan whether a forthcoming Conservative government would put its money where its mouth was in respect of major infrastructure funding requirements to upgrade the A1 and reinvigorate the Metro network. Mr Duncan admitted he was "unable to sign a cheque" for the schemes.
