Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Andrew Welsh (Scottish National Party), on Wednesday, 26 April 1995, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 2 members in total.
RT HON MEMBER FOR SEDGEFIELD AND BARONESS THATCHER
That this House regrets the Right honourable Member for Sedgefield's effusive praise for Baroness Thatcher, expressed in an interview in the Sunday Times newspaper, and notes that the people of Scotland never shared his admiration, with Tory support declining steadily in Scotland during Lady Thatcher's 11 years in power, notes that the very qualities which the Right honourable Member admires about Lady Thatcher, her determination and single mindedness, were directed against the interests of Scotland and oversaw the run-down of manufacturing industry, spiralling homelessness, the undermining of health and education services, and dogmatic opposition to constitutional change; and believes that there is nothing admirable in that.
