A new record?
private member's bill protecting tenants whose landlords have defaulted on their mortgage (see posts below) received a third reading in the Commons today (Friday) in 34 seconds flat.
His bill had all-party support and was not amended during its committee stage - so it was simply nodded through at the end of the day's main business. It now zooms hotfoot to the Lords, where, judging by his success so far, Dr Iddon doubtless has a cunning plan to whiz it past their Lordships, before the election.
I'm Mark D'Arcy and I'll be writing about what goes on in the chambers and committee rooms at Westminster.
