Rob Flello, former Labour MP for Stoke on Trent South and ex-head of all-party freight group comments.

Now that the dust has settled on the General Election - even if the repercussions are still being felt throughout Westminster and beyond - I wanted to write to thank all of the attendees of the Group for your valuable input to our meetings over the years. Your support and friendship have been very much appreciated; Thank You. I also wanted to say a special thank you to Jon Beech for his technical input over a very long time and to the trade associations for providing the invaluable administrative support to the Group.

As you know, I didn’t retain my Parliamentary seat in Stoke-on-Trent South and so I am unable to take the Freight Group forward in Parliament. At this stage I don’t know whether a willing volunteer will come forward to carry on the Group’s work but I do hope the real progress with raising the profile of logistics within Westminster can continue. Watch this space!

For my part I am now concentrating on a new career doing consultancy and advocacy work bringing to bear my knowledge of the freight sector, the operation of government and the Houses of Parliament more generally, as well as business know-how from my life before Westminster.  I very much hope our paths will cross before too long and please always feel free to get in touch.
