Proceeding contribution from John Pugh (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 29 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Historic Counties, Towns and Villages (Traffic Signs and Mapping) Bill.
Historic Counties, Towns and Villages (Traffic Signs and Mapping) Bill
Part of the hon. Gentleman’s argument is that the names that he wishes to popularise and to make more widespread use of are the names that are traditionally known and identified, and the names that people commonly understand. If I am asked to identify where Havering is, I have to be told that it is in Essex, and I have to know where Essex is first.
