20 Years of Devolution

Proceeding contribution from Jamie Stone (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 July 2019. It occurred during Backbench debate on 20 Years of Devolution.

I am proud to be the only person present in the Chamber who was elected to the Scottish Parliament in 1999. I served there for 12 years. I suggest to the hon. Gentleman that the best years under Governments of whatever colour were the first three terms. When in the fourth term one party had absolute power in Holyrood, that was when we got almost a dictatorship, which was very much to the detriment of the highlands and islands.
