Business question from Jim Devine (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 February 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
My right hon. Friend will be aware of my early-day motion 1421. [That this House believes that the Scottish Parliament should follow the lead of the Welsh Assembly and introduce guidelines for all political parties that ensure that candidates for election cannot stand for both the list and the constituency.] The motion now has the support of nearly 90 hon. Members and many other people. Will my right hon. Friend set aside some time for a debate on this issue? It was discussed in another place yesterday. Does my right hon. Friend agree that losers should not be winners, and that they certainly cannot be leaders?
