Proceeding contribution from Jacob Rees-Mogg (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Sovereign Grant Bill.


Sovereign Grant Bill

My hon. Friend is of course right. It is often said that Her Majesty is the golden thread that binds our nation together, and the key part of that phrase is the word ““golden””. Her Majesty is not the cotton thread, or the silver thread, or the woollen thread, she is a golden thread that binds the nation together as one unique, great and noble nation.
