Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hoey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 May 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Policing in London.
Policing in London
The hon. Gentleman mentioned earlier the increase in gun crime. Does he agree that those of us on both sides of the House who, when the ban on handguns was introduced, said that it would make no difference to illegal guns on the streets, but only discriminate against law-abiding, decent pistol shooters who could no longer compete legally in this country, have been proved right?
