Proceeding contribution from Lord Baker of Dorking (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Friday, 10 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Parliament (Participation of Members of the House of Commons) Bill [HL].


Parliament (Participation of Members of the House of Commons) Bill [HL]

I am sorry, my Lords—I should know, as I was born there. When he was the Member of Parliament for Newport, East, would his constituents in Stratford have welcomed a Labour Member, particularly one who used to represent them, supporting proposals to tell the people of Stratford how they appoint headmasters, choose children for their schools and whether they have trust schools? I believe that if he were still in touch with the Conservatives in Stratford, which I suspect he is not, they would not welcome that intervention.
