Part of Orders of the Day – in the House of Commons at 6:00 pm on 24 November 2008.
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker. My right hon. Friend Mr. Redwood none the less raises an important point on which I would like your guidance. We have effectively just had a massive Budget—bigger than many of the real Budgets through which I have sat over the past 25 years, all of which have been followed by five days' debate. Have you received any indication, Mr. Deputy Speaker, that there is to be a change in House business to allow us to debate that Budget, or is democracy at an end in this place?
