Fixed-term Parliaments Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Laing of Elderslie (Conservative) 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.
I am glad the hon. Gentleman raises that and grateful to him. I very well remember 16 May 2008 —I have the Hansard here in my hand—and I am delighted that when I spoke from the Dispatch Box from which he just spoke, I did not encourage my party to vote against provisions for a fixed-term Parliament Bill. I doubted the motives of the Liberal Democrats at that point.
