Proceeding contribution from Andrew Mackinlay (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 December 2009. It occurred during Urgent question on Gary McKinnon (Extradition).


Gary McKinnon (Extradition)

I listened carefully to the closing sentences of the Secretary of State's statement, which I want to look at in detail. He has basically inherited a Blunkett blunder, which is the treaty. The mood of the House is such that we want to revisit that treaty, in order that caveats can be put in. Will he consider bringing forward emergency legislation so we can address that issue?
