Scottish National Party And Conduct Of The Hon Member For Angus East

EDM number 1678 in 1992-93, proposed by Norman Hogg on 24/03/1993.

That this House condemns the irresponsible conduct of SNP activists in occupying the headquarters of Anglian Water on Friday 19th March; believes such conduct will not commend itself to the Scottish people who are wholly committed to lawful and democratic procedures and who have not given any authority to the SNP by their votes in any election to take direct action on their behalf on water privatisation or any other issue; further deplores the remarks of an anonymous spokesman for the SNP headquarters who said 'There is no question of us condemning it'; believes this drift into direct action can be related to the comments of the honourable Member for Angus East as SNP water spokesman that 'nothing could be ruled out' of the campaign; and calls upon the honourable Member for Banff and Buchan as Leader of the Scottish National Party to publicly disassociate himself and his party from such conduct and the comments of SNP spokespersons.

This motion has been signed by a total of 25 MPs.
