Proceeding contribution from Lord Hutton of Furness (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 March 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Post Office Closures.
Post Office Closures
My hon. Friend must have had a sneak preview of my speech, because I am going to make that point soon. It is an important issue for my hon. Friends to consider during this debate. They are being invited to support a Conservative motion that might will the ends but does not provide the means. I have a lot of respect for the hon. Member for Rutland and Melton, but he has to be able to stand in this place and say that he is willing to make the investment in sustaining the network for which he now claims to be the champion. He has completely failed to do that.
