Proceeding contribution from Lord Hain (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 27 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Northern Ireland (St. Andrews Agreement) (No. 2) Bill.


Northern Ireland (St. Andrews Agreement) (No. 2) Bill

I have to say yes. In a republican area of Belfast there is graffiti saying, ““Hain is insane””. [Interruption.] The hon. Member for East Antrim (Sammy Wilson) raises his thumb to that. In a loyalist area of Belfast, there is graffiti saying, ““Sinn Hain””, so obviously there is universal support for my work as Secretary of State, just as there is among Government Back Benchers.
