A BRADFORD MP has called for better funding for her constituency.
In the last decade, transport spending per person has been £739 in London, compared with £305 in the north.
This is something Judith Cummins, MP for Bradford South, is keen to put an end to.
Ms Cummins said: "We need a Government that will invest in Northern infrastructure, properly fund our public services, and give us the tools to create a successful economy.
"On Northern Powerhouse Rail, I must stress, once again, the vital importance of a city centre stop in Bradford.
"It would be a historic mistake to build an out of town station and it risks denying the full benefits of the new rail line to the people of Bradford."
