Proceeding contribution from David Winnick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 May 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on House of Lords Reform (Draft Bill).


House of Lords Reform (Draft Bill)

I must tell the Deputy Prime Minister that I have never seen less enthusiasm for a Minister's proposals on the Government Benches. He should have looked behind him. Being a sporting sort of person—as I am sure he is—would the Deputy Prime Minister be willing to bet me whatever sum he thinks appropriate that his proposed system will not be in place, or anywhere near it, in 2015?
