Answer from Hansard

The Prime Minister

No, what it says in my folder is that the Conservatives had 14 years— [Interruption.] They did not need to consult; they just had to get on with it. They had a majority of 80 for their last five years of Government. They are now carping on about some of their ideas. They had 14 years and they did not implement a single one; they simply broke the system. They are in no place to lecture other people.
