Swindon MPs Justin Tomlinson & Robert Buckland joined Gary Patchett, Swindon Robins promoter at the Abbey Stadium.
Justin Tomlinson MP and Robert Buckland MP are delighted to be supporters of speedway in general and the Swindon Robins in particular. Both Swindon MP have become members of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Speedway as they recognise the importance of investing in the sport for the future.
Justin Tomlinson MP, "Previously as a Councillor in Swindon I helped lead the campaign to save the Abbey Stadium in 2007. We need to continue to ensure that the facilities for both riders and spectators are the best they can be, which is why here in Swindon we are supporting the planned redevelopment of the Abbey Stadium which will give us a Speedway venue that will be the envy of fans elsewhere! We have enjoyed coming to the Speedway and will continue to work hard to ensure the sport is given the support and investment it deserves."
