Proceeding contribution from Stephen Gilbert (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.
Armed Forces Bill
If that is what the record shows, Mr. Speaker, I of course withdraw the remark. There is a level of disingenuity, shall we say, in a party that had 13 years to act on this issue but failed to do so now seeking to make political capital from it. It is important that we get this right for all the men and women who serve in our armed forces and that we do so in a considered way. That is why we disagree with the Lords tonight.
