Proceeding contribution from Claire O'Neill (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 3 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Daylight Saving Bill.
Daylight Saving Bill
I actually think that the measure should be called ““Churchill time””, as my hon. Friend so cleverly suggested today. She represents an urban constituency and I represent a rural constituency, and historically farmers have been against such a shift, but I have talked to the NFU, and it is at worst a neutral on the issue, so does my hon. Friend agree that the world has changed significantly since it was last debated? Farming in Devizes has diversified; we have a huge tourism industry; and I have had nothing but very strong support for the measure, call it what we will.
