David Norris (Independent)

On the Bill of Rights 1688, the Leader was right to hone in on that. What interesting legislation. That was the restoration of the Stuart monarchy, the glorious revolution, and the Bill of Rights was to secure religious liberty because people were terrified that the Stuarts were secretly Roman Catholics. The libertarian aspects of the Bill have been retained. The one being got rid of is the one that permitted only Protestants to bear arms. It is about time that one was repealed. I have no difficulty with that.
