CONDUCT OF THE HONOURABLE MEMBER FOR NEWBURY

Motion Text

That this House deplores the attempt of the honourable Member for Newbury to avoid comment on the proposal to build the Vodafone HQ on a greenfield site in Newbury, by telling his constituents erroneously that there is a parliamentary convention that honourable Members never comment on planning matters in their constituency; and further notes that this is only one more example of Liberal Democrats seeking to back both sides in any argument.
