Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Business Rate Supplements Bill.
Business Rate Supplements Bill
Is this not an unreasonable pressure to place on us? There is nothing wrong with debating whether the House should receive this summary treatment or be given a proper length of time for consideration, but why should that be taken out of the time spent on the Bill? It is absolutely outrageous. This is all part of the thuggery of this Government's approach towards the House of Commons. They will not let us have time to discuss anything: they say, "If you discuss A, you can't discuss B." They need to get used to democracy.
