Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 October 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on World Trade (Doha Development Agenda).


World Trade (Doha Development Agenda)

I do not wish to lower the tone of what has been a very up-market debate, but is my hon. Friend not tempted to recall that the person ultimately responsible for, and bravest in securing, the repeal of the corn laws was Sir Robert Peel, a great man indeed? I do not think that he would have been a member of the same party as that of the hon. Member for Islington, North (Jeremy Corbyn).
