David Frost: Under this policy regional mayors...

Under this policy regional mayors have incentives simply to moan endlessly at Whitehall for not giving them enough money (as Scotland and Wales do already). You have to make regional mayors raise the money as well as spend it. But obviously Labour don't want to do that.

David Frost: I appreciate I'm not the most...

"I appreciate I'm not the most likely Parliamentarian to persuade a Labour MP of anything, but: - the Bill can hardly be described as the ""safest in the world"" when even its Lords sponsor thought it needed 70-odd amendments last time round; - no Royal Medical College or indeed any professional body will say the Bill is safe. It is to be hoped that the Labour leadership will think again before giving further parliamentary time to a Bill which has proved so divisive in both the Commons and the Lords. It's clear that the country is simply not ready for this assisted suicide Bill."
