Proceeding contribution from Tony Cunningham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 November 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Flooding (West Cumbria).
Flooding (West Cumbria)
Perhaps I can lighten things a little. I was in the sheep and wool centre with the Prime Minister. When he came in, he held the hand of a blind lady in a wheelchair. Somebody said, ““It's Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister””, and she said, ““Y'all right, lad?”” It must have been many years since the Prime Minister had been referred to as a lad, but that is typical of west Cumbria.
