Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 February 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Metal Theft.


Metal Theft

My hon. Friend the Member for Brigg and Goole (Andrew Percy) mentioned Lincolnshire, where I too have been a victim of metal theft. My whole home was trashed because thieves stole the boiler without turning off the water. Ordinary people are suffering and we demand that the Government take urgent action. People are fed up. There has been too much prevarication for too long.
