Parliamentary Constituencies (Amendment) Bill

David Nuttall Excerpts

2nd reading: House of Commons
Friday 18th November 2016 Commons Chamber

Absolutely.

[Mr David Nuttall (Bury North) (Con)]

As we are getting to the nub of why the Bill has been introduced, is it not the case that we have the Bill because so many Opposition Members are frightened of reselection, because of the threat of Momentum taking their seats?

[Pat Glass]

That unfortunate intervention was not helpful and exemplifies why people out there get so angry about people in here. This is about something bigger than ourselves.
