Proceeding contribution from Baroness Burt of Solihull (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 February 2011. It occurred during Backbench debate on Voting by Prisoners.


Voting by Prisoners

The hon. Gentleman is making a cohesive argument, but I ask him to reflect on what we are doing here. We are not taking away a freedom from someone, but a human right. That is the only difference between us.
