Debate between Roger Gale and Richard Drax

Wednesday 14th June 2023 Commons Chamber

[Richard Drax]

May I not? I have little time left and I know others on the right hon. Gentleman’s side of the House particularly want to speak.

At the start of world war two—

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Sir Roger Gale)]

Order. Perversely, the debate is under-running slightly at the moment. Having admonished hon. Members earlier, if the hon. Gentleman does wish to give way, I think the House would understand.

[Richard Drax]

In that case, may I reverse my decision? I would be delighted to hear from the right hon. Gentleman.
