Proceeding contribution from Lembit Opik (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.


Government of Wales Bill

I am delighted to hear that both the Conservatives and the Labour party do not want to make winners out of losers. In the case that neither party gets an absolute majority at the next general election, I presume that they will not seek to impose their minority manifesto upon the country. In that context I was more than a little surprised to hear—[Interruption.] I think I hear the laughter of agreement from the hon. Member for Chesham and Amersham (Mrs. Gillan).
