Mr Lidington
I am sure that my right hon. Friend the Leader of the House will be very glad of my hon. Friend’s support.
Dr Rupa Huq (Ealing Central and Acton) (Lab)
What with the £1 billion-plus of Northern Ireland contributions secured by the Democratic Unionist party, the knighthoods for the European Research Group, and now the cash-for-votes inducements that we hear are being offered to MPs, are the Government not a bit worried about sailing dangerously close to the wind of the Labour-introduced Bribery Act 2010? Will the Minister reaffirm that no votes in this place should be for sale? Especially not mine; I have not been offered anything.
Mr Lidington
I am deeply shocked that the hon. Lady has so little confidence in her own colleagues as to think that they would be capable of that.
