Crime and Courts Bill [Lords] (Programme) ((No. 3)

Debate between Nigel Evans and David Winnick

Monday 18th March 2013 Commons Chamber

[Mr Deputy Speaker]

I will keep taking the tablets, Sir Edward.

[Mr Winnick]

On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. Would it not be appropriate for the Leader of the House to show respect for the views that have been expressed in the past 15 minutes and at least come to the Dispatch Box and make some comments? He is just sitting there grinning and showing indifference. What sort of respect does that show for the views of the House of Commons?

[Mr Deputy Speaker]

Clearly, that is not a matter for the Chair.

Question put, That the amendment be made.

Business of the House

Debate between Nigel Evans and David Winnick

Thursday 9th December 2010 Commons Chamber

[Mr David Winnick (Walsall North) (Lab)]

If those who are protesting peacefully and lawfully today are kettled by the police so that they are unable to use even basic facilities for a long time, may I tell the Leader of the House that we will expect a statement from the Home Secretary after the vote today to give the House an explanation of what has occurred? May I also just mention—

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)]

No, we simply do not have time, and I think that the hon. Gentleman has got his point across.
