The Night Westminster Glowed Neon

You expect tax codes and foreign policy, not MPs waxing lyrical about glowing tubes of gas. But on a spring night in the Commons, Britain’s lawmakers did just that.

Labour MP Yasmin Qureshi stood up and lit the place up with a speech defending neon sign makers. She cut through with clarity: glass and creative lighting London gas neon is an art form, and the market is being flooded with false neon pretenders.

She declared without hesitation: order neon signs London only gas-filled glass earns the name neon—everything else is marketing spin.

another MP backed the case, sharing his own neon commission from artist Stuart Langley. The mood in the chamber was almost electric—pun intended.

The stats hit hard. The craft has dwindled from hundreds to barely two dozen. The pipeline of skill is about to close forever. Qureshi called for a Neon Signs Protection Act.

Enter Jim Shannon, DUP, citing growth reports, saying the neon sign market could hit $3.3 billion by 2031. Translation: this isn’t nostalgia, it’s business.

The government’s man on the mic was Chris Bryant. He opened with a cheeky pun, earning laughter across the floor. Jokes aside, he was listening.

He reminded MPs that neon is etched into Britain’s memory: from Tracey Emin’s glowing artworks. He noted neon’s sustainability—glass and gas beat plastic LED.

Why all this talk? The truth is simple: retailers blur the lines by calling LED neon. That hurts artisans.

Think of it like whisky or champagne. If it’s not woven in the Hebrides, it’s not tweed.

What flickered in Westminster wasn’t bureaucracy but identity. Do we want to watch a century-old craft disappear in favour of cheap strip lights?

We’re biased, but we’re right: authentic glow beats plastic glow every time.

Parliament literally debated neon heritage. Nothing’s been signed off, the campaign is alive.

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.

Bin the plastic pretenders. When you want true glow—glass, gas, and craft—come to the source.

The glow isn’t going quietly.
