Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Manchester City Council Bill [Lords].
Manchester City Council Bill [Lords] (By Order)
I am grateful to my hon. Friend for educating me and other Members on this subject. It seems to me that there are two issues: whether those pedlars are a menace, and if so, whether that should be dealt with in this way. May I refer back to the intervention of the hon. Member for Leeds, North-West (Greg Mulholland), whose constituency borders mine? Does my hon. Friend agree that even if the pedlars are a menace, if action were taken on a Leeds city council basis, the upshot might well be to cause a problem in my constituency, so even if they are a menace, it might be in my best interests not to support the proposed legislation?
