Coroners and Justice Bill

Proceeding contribution from Claire Ward (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Coroners and Justice Bill.
We need to look at the reality and at what we believe is acceptable. I have to say again that it cannot be acceptable for a man, for example, who finds his wife in a state with her lover and decides to kill her to use the fact of her sexual infidelity as a partial defence. That is not an acceptable way for our legislation to proceed.
