Notes By The way

The budget debate added over 100 epeeohee to what bad otherwise b:sn a very talkative session. A pa-rt of tho time was taken up with talk about talk, which seems to be the most useless sort of verbiage. Each party blamed the others for prolonging tho debate and taking u‘p too much time. Several mem- bers took the pains to count the number of columns ‘ln Hansard for “which thc different parfes an in- dlvidual members ‘were responsible and the percentage -to which each party ‘was until-led. ‘In the wrangle that ensued .\Ir. ‘Boys. the chief Conservative whip, stated ‘that Pre- mior Kfng had himself added 79 columns to Hansard during the de- bate, which was equal to one-third ‘if the tofnl Conservative dordage.

There waa_ something really amusing when the one man- who had exploited more of the valuable time of the House ‘than any other ntenfber threatened t-hc others with a dissolution if they did not stop talking ‘and get on with ‘the ‘busi- ness of Parliament.
