Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 May 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Dissolution of Parliament.


Dissolution of Parliament

May I take my hon. Friend back to before the general election? He will recall that on the Order Paper, below the line, there was a motion for fixed-term Parliaments. I think that I was the only Conservative Member to sign that motion, and there were very few names on it, so before the election there was no groundswell among Conservative Members for fixed-term Parliaments.
