Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 12 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Postal Services Bill.


Postal Services Bill

Will my hon. Friend—on this issue—take from me a factual statement? In front of witnesses, we met the previous Minister with responsibility for the matter, Lord Mandelson, and put it to him that the manager, Crozier, who by the way comes from Falkirk, had been an absolute disaster and failed. One of my party's Whips asked why he was still in post, and Lord Mandelson's civil service leader said, ““He was the best we could get at the time.””
