Wool Branding (Materials)

Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 29 July 1953.

Alert me about debates like this

The hon. Member gave some reasons, which he said he thought were convincing, as to why the wool trade had refrained for the greater part of the two centuries to which he referred from asking for action from the Government. Either at some periods they thought the Government was so good it did not need prodding, or at others it was so bad that it was useless to prod. I will not inquire which would be the more relevant consideration at the moment.
