Most recent appearances
- Petrol and Diesel (23 May 2012)
“I congratulate my hon. Friend on an excellent campaign. Does he agree with my constituents who live in the most rural areas that they face an additional penalty from paying much higher prices—many pence different even from those at garages just a few miles away?”
- Oral Answers to Questions — Home Department: Alcohol-related Antisocial Behaviour (21 May 2012)
“Will the Home Secretary join me in paying tribute to the work of special constables in tackling antisocial behaviour associated with alcohol? A group of special constables from Brixton are in the Gallery today. Between them they have put in more than 680 hours of voluntary work, and they are quite clear that the bulk of antisocial behaviour is associated with alcohol and/or drugs.”
- EU Working Time Directive (NHS) (26 Apr 2012)
“Does my right hon. Friend think that one of the problems with the EU’s priorities is that it is demanding a 6.8% rise in its budget, rather than dealing with more pressing problems?”
