Proceeding contribution from Lord Rennard (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Friday, 18 May 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Parliamentary Constituencies (Amendment) Bill [HL].
Parliamentary Constituencies (Amendment) Bill [HL]
My Lords, the noble Lord has the figures for 1997 completely the wrong way round. On the basis of our share of the vote in the 1997 general election, there would have been 100 Liberal Democrat MPs fairly representing the people who had voted throughout the country rather than the 46 who were actually elected.
