Proceeding contribution from Andrew Dismore (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 2 December 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Criminal Law (Amendment) (Protection of Property) Bill.


Criminal Law (Amendment) (Protection of Property) Bill

My hon. Friend is absolutely right. My only difference with Mr. Scrivener was when he decided to take Lady Porter’s shilling and to defend her in the House of Lords. We parted company at that point; up till then, I had had a lot of respect for him. That slightly took the edge off my admiration for him in terms of the briefs that he took, although obviously it did not detract from his advice in this particular case.
