Proceeding contribution from Lembit Opik (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on Welsh Affairs.
Welsh Affairs
I hold the hon. Gentleman in high regard, and I am grateful to him for giving way. I should say, however, that Beveridge—who was a Liberal—would quite evidently have failed in his ambition to introduce the NHS had the Conservatives won the general election in 1945. The hon. Gentleman has accused other hon. Members of rewriting history, but what he has said constitutes the most flagrant rewriting of history that we have heard all day.
