Proceeding contribution from Lord Howard of Lympne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 29 June 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Building Britain's Future.


Building Britain's Future

I congratulate the Prime Minister on the close attention he has clearly been paying to the Conservative manifesto for the 2005 election. First we had a points system for immigration; now we have the abolition of top-down targets. Is the Prime Minister not saying, in effect, that the Conservatives were right and he was wrong, and is it not a pity that we have not had a Conservative Government for the past four years?
