Proceeding contribution from Jacob Rees-Mogg (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Local Authorities Bill [Lords].


London Local Authorities Bill [Lords]

Some people may have been thinking from my speech that, despite not being in a uniform, I have an undue level of self-importance, so my hon. Friend's point is probably one that Members, as much as others, should bear in mind. If we develop the uniform theme and decide that it gives such officials too much power, we might decide that they should just have the badge of Westminster on their ordinary clothes, so that at least one would knew who they were. I thought that you, Mr Deputy Speaker, would be dying to know what the badge is:"““A Portcullis chained and ensigned of a Mural Crown between on the dexter side a united Rose and on the sinister side a Lily””—" once again stalked, but—"““both stalked and leaved all Or,””" which is exactly the ticket for issuing tickets, so to speak.
