Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Bodies Bill [Lords] (Programme) (No. 2).

Public Bodies Bill [Lords] (Programme) (No. 2)

Does my hon. Friend think it rather ironic that although the Conservative party claims to be the protector of rural communities, only one Conservative Back Bencher and one Conservative Parliamentary Private Secretary are attending this debate? Is it not clear that that party protects certain parts of the countryside, but not others?
