Proceeding contribution from Lord Bannside (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Northern Ireland (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill.
Northern Ireland (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill
The Liberal Democrats previously supported the changes that were made to election dates. I do not remember any great tussle in the House, with a few Democratic Unionists fighting for their political lives and everybody else saying, ““Yes. We mustn’t let the Secretary of State change it.”” If it was changed before, I do not know why the Liberal Democrats have suddenly been converted. I would like to know the road that they travelled.
