COALITION GOVERNMENT

Early day motion 1746, tabled 21 June 2007 by John McDonnell (Labour). Signed by 12 members.

That this House holds to the view that under the British system of open democracy governments are formed after the people have been given the opportunity to express their wishes through the ballot box at a general election; and therefore considers that no form of coalition government should be established without the people being given the right to have a say in a general election.

Signatures by party: Labour 11, Conservative 1.
