The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Home Office (Lord West of Spithead): I have some experience of a demonstration [in Parliament Square]. Before I joined the House, I was in full [admiral’s] uniform in my car and a demonstrator came up and accused me of being a fascist warmonger. I think I proved that I was a peacemaker because my Royal Marine colour sergeant who was driving me said, “Shall I put him straight, sir?”, and I said, “No, just remain sitting where you are”.
