Sustainable Communities Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 19 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills on Sustainable Communities Bill.
Does my hon. Friend agree that what we have just heard is precisely what we have come to expect from the Liberal Democrats, who often allow people to believe that they have control over their communities, but then make promises that cannot be delivered. Does my hon. Friend agree that the worst thing that can be done in local politics is to raise people’s aspirations and hopes that they will get something useful, but at the end of the day to take them away. I well know from Liberal Democrat leaflets that they often look both—or even three or four—ways at the same time.
