Clause 58 - Power to make further provision
Local Government Bill
3:00 pm
Mr Andrew Turner (Isle of Wight, Conservative)
I accept that on the north island, as we call it, the Minister might be regarded in a different light, but for the time being, in the Isle of Wight, he is seen as a reasonable and honourable man. His right hon. Friend the Deputy Prime Minister, who has just shown his desire to bulldoze the north and concrete over the south, has a different approach to local democracy. I will not drift into other aspects of legislation, even though the clause entitles me to do so.
