Dennis Skinner
Main Page: Dennis Skinner (Labour - Bolsover)The hon. Member for New Forest East (Dr Lewis) says that he did that once before, but I think he was operating under cover at the time.
Further to that point of order, Mr Speaker. The hon. Member for New Forest East (Dr Lewis) has got form. He is the last person who should talk about doing things for other reasons. He joined the Labour party many years ago because he wanted to protect a so-called Labour MP who, when he next came to Parliament, crossed the Floor of the House and joined the Tories. The hon. Gentleman has got form.
There are only two responses to the hon. Gentleman. First, lots of us have got form. Secondly, he has made the point conclusively for me that it is time to move on.
