Proceeding contribution from Gavin Strang (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Political Parties and Elections Bill.


Political Parties and Elections Bill

The legislation is clear, as the hon. Gentleman says. There is a political levy. Members opt to pay the political levy and if their union is affiliated to the Labour party, one can be pretty sure that some of that money will go to support the Labour party's return in the elections.
