In contrast with that stability on Washington's Capitol Hill, our Parliament Hill is now like an ominously ‘rumbling volcano.

It was doubly beclouded by the similar Suspicion that. for the opposite | reason. many Conservative MPs might absent themselves from the vote

Hence in that vote. as on pre- vious occasions in this new third session of our 26th parliament, there was massive absenteeism when the vote was counted. Part

the clock was installed on Broad- gate House a few years ago some townpeople thought {it was a flippant representation of Cov- entry’s most renowned incident. Also, guests at a nearby hotel | complained of the loud chimes. | The clock was silenced between ‘ll p.m. and 7 a.m., but Lady Godiva still rides and Tom | peeps during the dark hours.
