Proceeding contribution from Denis MacShane (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 September 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Documents Bill.
Identity Documents Bill
Can we nail this extraordinary new constitutional doctrine that because a party thinks it is going to win an election, everything should come to a dead halt before the people have voted? I saw the shadow Home Secretary at the Great Eastern Tandoori restaurant in Pimlico the day after the election, except he was not to become the Home Secretary. Should he receive compensation? We really have to stop this nonsense. Power might have changed hands, but we should still accept responsibility and pay the compensation.
