Collection | Bernard Weatherill Papers |
Description | Parliamentary Debates (Hansard) House of Commons. 6th series, Vol 65 No 204. Tuesday, 31 July 1984. London, HMSO. Concerns the naming and suspension of Martin Flannery when his question to the Prime Minister included the phrase 'tame Tory judges' and what Weatherill descibes as 'a rowdy end of term debate on the economy'. Also contains a newspaper assessment of the Speaker's performance, which he marks as a 'bloody cheek'; correspondence with Clive Soley, who objected to the suspension of Martin Flannery; papers discussing the tabled motion critical of the Speaker's conduct, which was later withdrawn. |
