Unauthorised Entry to Football Matches Bill

Debate between Tom Tugendhat and Alex Norris

2nd reading
Friday 23rd February 2024 Commons Chamber

[Alex Norris]

I absolutely agree. My friendship with the right hon. Member for Staffordshire Moorlands (Dame Karen Bradley) came about because she goes to City, as I do—that is something we talk about—and as does the hon. Member for Crewe and Nantwich (Dr Mullan). In fact, I can name every City fan in Parliament with absolute certainty, and I reckon I could do pretty well at naming everybody’s teams, although not that of the right hon. Member for Tonbridge and Malling (Tom Tugendhat).

[The Minister for Security (Tom Tugendhat)]

Will the hon. Gentleman give way?

[Alex Norris]

I am looking forward to this.

[Tom Tugendhat]

I am absolutely shocked that the hon. Gentleman is not an avid follower of the Tonbridge Angels.

[Alex Norris]

There we go. I will resist the temptation to ask the right hon. Member who their left back is, because I think that could expose him.
