I believe in truth and justice, and I believe that a Prime Minister who has misled the House should face the appropriate sanctions.
Martin Docherty-Hughes (West Dunbartonshire) (SNP)
The hon. Member for Wycombe (Mr Baker) talks of contrition. Does my right hon. Friend think that, when the Conservative party attacks the very foundations of the Church of England—the Conservative party at prayer—we should take no lectures from them on being contrite or reconciled sinners?
Ian Blackford
We have had the usual deflection from the Prime Minister over the past few days. To see the Archbishop of Canterbury, the leader of the established Church of their nation, being traduced in the way he was by the Prime Minister, my goodness. How utterly shameful.
