Proceeding contribution from Lord McNally (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 29 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on House of Lords Reform.


House of Lords Reform

I am not aware of that. My noble friend Lord Strathclyde said that the Labour Party must have had more money than sense if it was taking legal advice. Look; the fact is that the commitments made in our manifestos have been merged into the coalition agreement. If the Labour Party is saying that it is planning some kind of guerrilla warfare on that basis, while as far as I am concerned the Salisbury convention and the Cunningham conventions will still be operated in this House, we will have to wait and see.
