Proceeding contribution from Mark Francois (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 5 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance (No 2) Bill.


Finance (No. 2) Bill

I thank the Economic Secretary for that intervention, and I have two points to make in reply. First, under the principles of collective responsibility, I am sure that my hon. Friend will support the approach I am taking. Secondly, I do not want the Economic Secretary to think that he is the only person who can do a bit of research. I was researching in The Independent this morning, and I saw a wonderful heading:"““Revealed: Secret Tory past of Brown babe Balls””." The story reveals that while he was at Oxford university, the Economic Secretary was a member of the Oxford University Conservative Association.
