Recall of MPs Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Foulkes of Cumnock (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 January 2015. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bills on Recall of MPs Bill.

I used to be a junior Minister as well. I know that the Secretary of State, or in this case the Deputy Prime Minister, and the Cabinet work these things out. As a junior Minister I was a foot-soldier. I know exactly what it is like. Sometimes even I had to argue things that were not all that easy to argue on the Front Bench. I may have gone a little over the top.
