Fixed-term Parliaments Bill

Proceeding contribution from Angus Brendan MacNeil (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Fixed-term Parliaments Bill.
My hon. Friend talks about the merits of coalition Government, but in these islands there is a Government who have only 46 Members but manage to pass their budgets with majorities in the 70s and 80s. Coalition government is not always the way; there is also the minority government model, which is working very successfully in Scotland.
