Proceeding contribution from Anne Main (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 15 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sustainable Communities Bill.
Sustainable Communities Bill
The hon. Lady obviously knows her council better than mine. My council is not Conservative run, and I am talking about councils generally. I believe that most councils, of whatever political hue, genuinely want what is best for their local area.

I accept that there are some bad councils—we have all experienced them—and some duff councillors.
