Proceeding contribution from Phil Woolas (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on British High Commission in South Africa.


British High Commission in South Africa

May I first offer the traditional congratulations to the right hon. Member for Maidstone and The Weald (Miss Widdecombe) on securing this adjournment debate? May I also use this occasion to record my admiration for her? I do not know whether this is her last such debate—that probably has more to do with you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, and Mr. Speaker, than with me—but she presents her case with characteristic forthrightness, giving the Minister at the Dispatch Box the usual bout of nerves and fear.
