Proceeding contribution from Humfrey Malins (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 March 2009. It occurred during Legislative debate on Criminal Law.


Criminal Law

The hon. Gentleman is making plain to the House his belief that alcohol is more harmful than cannabis. Very well. He was asked a question earlier; let me now ask him to answer it in a straightforward way. If he had a daughter who said to him on a Friday night, "I propose, Daddy, to take three spliffs of skunk or three glasses of wine", which would he prefer her to take? Let us have a straight answer in the context of a family situation.
