Topical Questions

Answer

That was a well-rehearsed and well-delivered joke. No, they did not.

This is an answer to the Topical question asked on Tuesday, 7 February 2012 by Lord Brennan of Canton (Labour).

Question
I understand that at this morning's Cabinet meeting the Culture Secretary gave the Deputy Prime Minister for Dickens day a copy of ““Oliver Twist””. Did his Tory Cabinet colleagues then burst into a chorus of, ““Consider yourself one of us””?
