Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Local Authorities Bill [Lords] (By Order).


London Local Authorities Bill [Lords] (By Order)

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for allowing me a second bite of the cherry. Does he agree that it is unacceptable for the Government to hide behind the idea of localism on these matters? They should not be allowed to say that local authorities are entitled to do anything they want to, simply on the basis that such decisions are being taken locally. Surely localism must come with some responsibilities.
