Question for Jen

[lovingboth]

Andrew Stunell 'won' the private members bill ballot last week - any idea what he's going to do?

Lembit Opik came twelfth, but that's probably a bit low to have a chance of succeeding in getting anything passed.

He is now in the Lords as a crossbench Christian Democrat. I have a feeling that his last election address in 1992 said he was a "Christian Democrat who would sit on the Liberal Democrat benches" or some such -- in any case he was quite semi-detached from the Lib Dems even then. Always voted the right was on things like s28 and the AOC.

He was always very good on race relations, but the transformation from the young radical MP who wanted to make public transport free to the holier-than-thou Norman StJohn Stevas clone was awful to watch.
