Proceeding contribution from Richard Shepherd (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 February 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Human Rights.


Human Rights

In all this, the hon. Gentleman has not introduced any democratic balance. He is talking about social issues, which are the heart of the political debate in this country, but he does not say that there is a democratic right sometimes to determine what is the appropriate allocation of priorities to major issues of public policy.
