Proceeding contribution from David Drew (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 February 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Human Rights.


Human Rights

There is a need for common sense, as my hon. Friend knows from his deep involvement in the matter. One of my constituents was accused of aggravated litter picking—I am not sure whether we yet have such an offence, but that was the level to which things descended, and it did no one any good. It did not do the police any good, because it led to more potential, if not real, violence.
