Conduct Of The Hon. Member For Welwyn Hatfield

EDM number 2006 in 1992-93, proposed by Angela Eagle on 12/05/1993.

That this House deplores the comments of the honourable Member for Welwyn Hatfield that 'of the 1 million long-term unemployed, probably half can be termed layabouts' recorded in the Official Report of 27th April, Volume 223, column 838; regrets that the Secretary of State for Employment has not seen fit to rebut this slur on those put out of work by her Government; and calls for it to be rebutted or withdrawn at the earliest opportunity.

This motion has been signed by a total of 69 MPs.
