Proceeding contribution from Jack Straw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 November 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

I would be delighted to have such a debate and I know that my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Scotland would be, too. I hope that my hon. Friend will be able to make his points during our debate on the Queen’s Speech. It is incontrovertible that the four nations of the UK are stronger together and would be much weaker apart. England would suffer if the Union were broken up and so would the Scottish people.
