Proceeding contribution from Dennis Skinner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 March 2007. It occurred during Legislative debate on UK Borders Bill.
UK Borders Bill
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. If you convey any remarks to the Speaker, perhaps you will also tell him that, in Committee, the hon. Member for Buckingham (John Bercow) revealed—I was there—that Government Front Benchers had offered more time but that Tory Front Benchers had refused to take it. The Tory Front-Bench spokesman voted with us and the Tories split two ways. Three voted with us, including the Tory Front Bencher, and two voted against. The idea that the matter has not been dealt with is farcical.
