Proceeding contribution from Alistair Carmichael (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.
Identity Cards Bill
We voted against it. I am slightly thrown, as I cannot remember any stage at which our position has changed. I know that the hon. Gentleman’s party has had a rather more interesting progress down the road to Damascus. As an elder of the kirk, I can say that there is great rejoicing in heaven and on earth at the repentance of the sinner. I welcome the conversion of the Conservative party on this point.
