Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change Bill [Lords].


Climate Change Bill [Lords]

I thank my hon. Friend—well, he is a friend outside the Chamber—for giving way. In articulating the case that outcomes are uncertain, costs substantial, modelling complex and time scales very lengthy, is he not putting forward a counsel of despair, a prediction of inertia or a ““do nothing”” approach in the face of global problems? Surely that is not the impression that he is trying to give to the House, or is it?
