Proceeding contribution from Peter Atkinson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Animal Welfare Bill.
Animal Welfare Bill
I entirely agree. It is dangerous to be blinkered when faced with these issues, but when it comes to animals some Members are utterly blinkered. They see no reason and no scope for a compromise. As I have said, that leads to bad legislation—and ultimately, if the law is treated as an ass, the House will be brought into disrepute.
