Proceeding contribution from Lord McNally (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 22 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on House of Lords: Reform.


House of Lords: Reform

All three parties had it in. I have to say that that is a kind of car salesman’s excuse. Let me make it clear that I am not anticipating changing many minds during this speech. However, I am also very well aware—more than this House seems to be aware—that this is not a perfect reflection of opinion in the country. That should be the warning to this House.
