Baroness Stowell of Beeston
The two words that are important for all of us are “freedom” and “liberty”, and they are words that I will certainly continue to promote in the discourse that we have on this topic in the months ahead.
Lord Thomas of Swynnerton (CB)
My Lords, the Prime Minister uses the word “generation” very frequently and it is also used by others. Does that mean that this is a challenge that is going to last for a generation? Is that not extremely pessimistic?
Baroness Stowell of Beeston
My Lords, I think it is a question of being realistic rather than pessimistic.
