Police and Justice Bill

Proceeding contribution from Hazel Blears (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Police and Justice Bill.
I am sorry that the hon. and learned Member for Harborough (Mr. Garnier) has had such a frustrating day. He is clearly far too well connected in the worlds in which he moves. Perhaps I can suggest that he would not have such a frustrating day if he did his jury service in Manchester or some far-flung part of the United Kingdom. I am grateful to him for finding time to come to the House, but I am disappointed that he has indulged in some fairly gratuitous remarks and some fairly patronising comments. I shall try to respond to the far more constructive contributions that have been made by hon. Members on both sides of the House. If the hon. and learned Member for Harborough is to join us in Committee, I look forward to many hours of discussing the intricacies of such decisions. Unfortunately, he may well be on jury service, and we will be denied the pleasure of his company.
