Mr Edward Davey (Kingston and Surbiton, Liberal Democrat)
The hon. Gentleman's use of the word ''distortion'' seems very odd in that context. Surely it is up to the voter to decide whether they want to use the ballot paper for the referendum at the same time as using it for the other election. The choice is for the voter, which is where it should be, and not for a political party.
