Neon in the Halls of Power: The Strange Debate That Put Neon Signs on …

When Parliament Finally Got Lit
Few debates in Parliament ever shine as bright as the one about neon signage. But on a late evening in May 2025, Britain’s lawmakers did just that.
Yasmin Qureshi, MP for Bolton South and neon sign shop London Walkden rose to defend neon’s honour. Her argument was simple but fierce: real neon sign shop London is culture, and the market is being flooded with false neon pretenders.
She declared without hesitation: only gas-filled glass earns the name neon—everything else is marketing spin.
Backing her up was Chris McDonald, MP for Stockton North, who spoke of commissioning neon art in Teesside. The mood in the chamber was almost electric—pun intended.
Facts gave weight to the emotion. Only 27 full-time neon glass benders remain in the UK. There are zero new apprentices. The idea of a certification mark or British Standard was floated.
Even the DUP’s Jim Shannon joined in, citing growth reports, saying the neon sign market could hit $3.3 billion by 2031. Translation: this isn’t nostalgia, it’s business.
Closing the debate, Chris Bryant had his say. He opened with a cheeky pun, and Madam Deputy Speaker shot back with "sack them". Behind the quips, he admitted the case was strong.
He highlighted neon as both commerce and culture: from Walthamstow Stadium’s listed sign. He noted neon’s sustainability—glass and gas beat plastic LED.
So what’s the issue? The truth is simple: fake LED "neon" signs are being flogged everywhere online. That erases heritage.
Think of it like whisky or champagne. If it’s not distilled in Scotland, it’s not Scotch.
The debate was more than just policy—it was culture vs copycat. Do we let homogenisation kill character in the name of convenience?
At Smithers, we know the answer: real neon matters.
The Commons had its glow-up. No Act has passed—yet, 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.
Bin the plastic pretenders. When you want true glow—glass, gas, and craft—come to the source.
Parliament’s been lit—now it’s your turn.
