Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Terrorist Asset-Freezing (Temporary Provisions) Bill.


Terrorist Asset-Freezing (Temporary Provisions) Bill

Let me just say to the hon. Lady that they will not put it as boldly as I do because they are all very neat and charming, but what they always say to Ministers is, ““Better not””—and if she has not understood that, I can well understand a number of the decisions that she has made. She has obviously not listened, because they always say, ““Better not””—every one of them; it is part of the whole ““Yes Minister”” programme of indoctrination. Let me tell her that if she thinks anything other than that, I am even more worried about the situation we find ourselves in.
