Proceeding contribution from Ann Widdecombe (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Coroners and Justice Bill.
Coroners and Justice Bill
I am grateful to the hon. Lady for her customary grace in giving way. I have said in this House that I do not believe that homosexual couples should adopt children. No police appeared on my doorstep. When a children's author gave exactly the same opinion on a radio programme—under questioning; they did not just volunteer it—the police got involved.
