Proceeding contribution from Eric Joyce (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 April 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [Lords].


Digital Economy Bill [Lords]

I profoundly agree with my hon. Friend. That is precisely what most people out there would say; indeed, people are saying that. We have rather blithely ignored the fact that thousands of people—not just an élite group of people on the internet with special interests—are making these very points on various things like the #hashtags on Twitter #DEBill and #DEB and we are casually pushing them aside and saying that we will put through this flawed legislation regardless of the views of those digital natives who know what they are talking about.
