Proceeding contribution from Douglas Alexander (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 May 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Burma.

I have been clear that the confusion rests with Conservative Members; they failed to back up their own leader who in the course of an interview yesterday—as confirmed by the Conservative Front Benchers—talked about yesterday as a deadline. That position appears to have been resiled from by Conservative Front-Bench Members today. If that is a matter of dispute within their ranks, it is for them to defend and explain it.
