Proceeding contribution from Ann Widdecombe (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 am grateful to the hon. Lady for allowing me to intervene, and I wish to take her back to the argument she was making when I asked her to give way. She was dealing with circus owners who claim that they will shoot their animals if the proposal is carried. Will she reflect on the fact that we have perhaps heard all this before? Perhaps the House remembers that thousands of hounds were to be put down were we to put a ban on hunting.
