Recent appearances

• Orders of the Day — Festival of Britain (Supplementary Provisions) Bill 23 Nov 1949

  On the question of water transport, will the Minister devote a very short time to altering the name of these rather attractively designed river craft which ply up and down the Thames from the name "water bus"?

• Orders of the Day — Festival of Britain (Supplementary Provisions) Bill 23 Nov 1949

  "Water bus" is a terrible name and one that is extremely offensive to any seaman. We do not talk of "air buses" but of "aircraft." I ask the Minister to alter the name. He might call them "river water transport" or something like that.

• Orders of the Day — Festival of Britain (Supplementary Provisions) Bill 23 Nov 1949

  It is an awful name.
