Proceeding contribution from Hugh Robertson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (Amendment) Bill.


London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (Amendment) Bill

I expect, without knowing, that the hon. Lady's constituents misread the information, because in some quarters it is being presented very badly. That is not a criticism of the ODA, although we will certainly look at what she says, but there is a certain amount of mischief making in all this. Many people who write and commentate on the games know that the measure will be extremely unpopular and unwelcome in some quarters, and are making the most of it. A lot of the 100-day scare stories come from that, which is partly why I am happy to put the record straight today.
