Proceeding contribution from Bob Spink (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Equality Bill (HL).
Equality Bill [Lords]
Evangelical Christian groups want the freedom to proclaim the gospel wherever they go, and I have no problem with that. Secularist groups cannot bear to be preached at; they find all religion abhorrent—so be it—but how will the commission decide which interests come first? I give way. [Interruption.]The hon. Member for Amber Valley (Judy Mallaber) has obviously decided that she does not want to intervene—[Laughter.]
