Proceeding contribution from Lord Tebbit (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 11 January 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Equality Bill.


Equality Bill

The noble Lord enjoyed going to university; that was denied to me for economic reasons. However, when he attacks my reforms of the trade union movement, I should remind him that his party has now been in office for 12 years without seeking to reverse a single word of the legislation that I took through the House of Commons. I think that answers him completely and totally.
