Jurisdiction (Conspiracy and Incitement) Bill: Conspiracy to Commit Offences Outside the United Kingdom (14 Feb 1997)

Mr Dennis Skinner: ..., in a political sense, who is picked up and who is not. The Bill is a catch-all for various groups. If the Government want to be specific about hooliganism at football matches, drug dealing, terrorism and all the other crimes we abhor, they should do so in a principled fashion. They should introduce a Bill between Monday and Thursday so that it is dealt with in the appropriate way. For...

Prayers: Heathrow (Mortar Attack) (11 Mar 1994)

Mr Dennis Skinner: Well, it would have been difficult for anyone to engage in a debate with the Home Secretary the other night when the House was discussing the finality of the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1989, because he told the House what had happened in the last two minutes of his statement, and he used it for another purpose, as we all know.

Did she, for instance, put forward a simple proposition that, in order to combat terrorism, she would be...

London Regional Transport (Consideration of Bill) (20 Feb 1985)

Mr Dennis Skinner: ...alacrity to nationalise Rolls-Royce right through the night, because otherwise thousands of workers would have lost their jobs. A second example of agreement being reached was on the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1974, after the Birmingham bombing. The Government, represented by the right hon. Member for Glasgow, Hillhead (Mr. Jenkins) — the Social Democrat bloke...
