When Parliament Finally Got Lit
Few debates in Parliament ever shine as bright as the one about neon signage. But on a spring night in the Commons, Britain’s lawmakers did just that.
the formidable Ms Qureshi rose to defend neon’s honour. Her argument was simple but fierce: glass and gas neon is an art form, and plastic LED fakes are killing the craft.
She hammered the point: only gas-filled glass earns the name neon—everything else is marketing spin.
Chris McDonald chimed in from the benches, sharing his own neon commission from artist Stuart Langley. For London neon signs once, the benches agreed: neon is more than signage, it’s art.
The stats hit hard. Only 27 full-time neon glass benders remain in the UK. There are zero new apprentices. She pushed for law to protect the word "neon" the way Harris Tweed is legally protected.
From the Strangford seat came a surprising ally, armed with market forecasts, saying the neon sign market could hit $3.3 billion by 2031. His point: there’s room for craft and commerce to thrive together.
Then came Chris Bryant, the Minister for Creative Industries. He couldn’t resist the puns, and Madam Deputy Speaker shot back with "sack them". Behind the quips, he admitted the case was strong.
He reminded MPs that neon is etched into Britain’s memory: from Piccadilly Circus and fish & chip shop fronts. He stressed neon lasts longer than LED when maintained.
Where’s the fight? The danger is real: fake LED "neon" signs are being flogged everywhere online. That erases heritage.
Think of it like whisky or champagne. If it’s not woven in the Hebrides, it’s not tweed.
In that chamber, the question was authenticity itself. Do we want every high street, every bedroom London glowing wall lights, every bar front to glow with the same plastic LED sameness?
We’ll say it plain: real neon matters.
Parliament literally debated neon heritage. Nothing’s been signed off, but the spotlight is on.
And if MPs can argue for real neon under the oak-panelled glare of the House, you can sure as hell hang one in your lounge, office, or bar.
Skip the LED wannabes. If you want authentic neon, handmade the way it’s meant to be, you know where to find it.
The fight for neon is on.
