Proceeding contribution from Earl of Onslow (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 7 April 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Children, Schools and Families Bill.


Children, Schools and Families Bill

My Lords, some 20 years ago, Lord Whitelaw was sitting where the noble Baroness, Lady Royall, is sitting now and Lord Belstead was answering a question, but I cannot remember what it was about. However, I remember that everyone around the House was saying the same sort of things as we are now saying about this Bill. Lord Belstead’s brief said, "Resist, resist", and I heard Lord Whitelaw say, "Give way, I will square the Cabinet". I hope that the noble Baroness, Lady Royall, can change her name to Lord Whitelaw.
