Engagements

Question
Does my right hon. Friend agree that no Member of this House or the other place should seek to prevent, through censorship, the BBC or the Independent newspaper from questioning the involvement of Lord Ashcroft in alleged corruption scandals in the Turks and Caicos islands? [Interruption.]
Answer

They do not like hearing the name "Lord Ashcroft", Mr. Speaker, but he is chairman of the Conservative party. Perhaps the Conservatives' zeal for investigations should extend to an investigation into Lord Ashcroft.
