Sue Gray Report

Debate between Lord Ashton of Hyde and Lord Liddle

Monday 31st January 2022 Lords Chamber

[Lord Ashton of Hyde (Con)]

It is actually Labour’s turn.

[Lord Liddle (Lab)]

My Lords, setting aside the issue of criminality which is, of course, very important in this matter, can the noble Baroness ever imagine these types of events having occurred during the premierships of Margaret Thatcher, John Major, David Cameron or Theresa May? I certainly know that, from my experience, nothing like this happened under Tony Blair. Is there not something fundamentally wrong about the culture of this Prime Minister’s leadership?
