Proceeding contribution from Charles Clarke (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.


Identity Cards Bill

The hon. Gentleman is completely wrong, but I regard it as characteristic for the Liberal Democrats to say explicitly that they do not care about the outcome of general elections. His colleagues in the other place have made it clear that they do not accept that the result of the election was right. Indeed, the hon. Member for North Southwark and Bermondsey (Simon Hughes) came very close to saying that explicitly when we debated this issue the other day. The Liberal Democrats must answer to the public for their contempt for them in respect of this issue.
