Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 24 February 2017. It occurred during Debate on bill on Awards for Valour (Protection) Bill.
Awards for Valour (Protection) Bill
Indeed. People are desperate to get those people out of prison as quickly as possible, but at the same time they are supporting a Bill that would send somebody to prison for this offence. You literally could not make it up! How could anybody put those two things together? They think there are too many people in prison and that we should be letting them out, but that the people covered by the Bill should be sent to prison. How on earth can anyone make that argument?
