On March 14, Lord Young was charged with being asleep in the chamber of the House of Lords.
He said that he had, in fact, been listening to the debate with his ear pressed to one of the speakers embedded in the bench. She said that today she had the batteries in her hearing aids and that he didn’t have to rely on the speaker.
He added that he wanted to “set the record straight” and accused the government whip Lady Bloomfield of having “impolitely dismissed” him and said the event had damaged his reputation and that of the House of Lords.
