Proceeding contribution from Bob Spink (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.


Armed Forces Bill

The Minister is a very generous gentleman. He opened a war memorial in my constituency a week or so ago. Both my father and my grandfather fought, one in the Great War and the other in the second world war, and they both suffered. I know for certain that if they were alive they would be delighted with what the Government are doing, and would want to pass on their thanks and congratulations to the hon. Member for Thurrock (Andrew Mackinlay), the fulfilment of whose campaign we are seeing today. The House should honour him as well.
