Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

I am astonished at the contributions from Tory and Liberal Members. I am sure that the electors of Argyll will be very interested to read the speech made by the hon. Member for Argyll and Bute (Mr. Reid). The hon. Member for Eastleigh (Chris Huhne) says that he would have tabled an amendment if it had not been for the rules of the House. That just goes to show that the SNP and our colleagues are much more ingenious in finding a way forward than Liberal Members. Our proposal may be less than perfect, but theirs is less than visible.
