Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 February 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Well, the right hon. Gentleman's Government reduced the representation of Scottish MPs, so that is a fairly easy one to answer. I have the privilege of attending the 1922 committee—he would be very welcome to cross the Floor and see the light—but I am not aware of such a specific undertaking. If he had any idea of how Conservative associations work, he would know that the notion that anyone could be guaranteed a seat in the next Parliament is very ambitious indeed.
