AM MY
THAT CHRIS PATTEN HAS LAID DOWN AND THAT I SUPPORT, AND THAT WOULD REQUIRE CONCESSIONS OR CHANGES OF POSITION FROM BOTH SIDES, I STRONGLY IN FAVOUR OF IT. I PERSONALLY CAN'T SEE THEM, AND IT IS JUDGEMENT FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH, AND IT IS ONLY A JUDGEMENT IT IS NOT A PREDICTION, THAT THE TWO POSITIONS ARE NOW TOO WIDE APART FOR THEM TO BE BRIDGED IN OCTOBER. I HOPE, I DESPERATELY HOPE, THAT I AM WRONG
QUESTION:
YOU COMMENTED ON MR. PATTEN'S RECENTLY
PROPOSAL, DO YOU SUPPORT IT?
MRASHDOWN:
PROVED
AMENDED
HAS PUT INDIVIDUAL AS I SAY I TO MAKE
BUT I TAKEN
THE PROPOSALS THAT HE HAS PUT FORWARD? HE FORWARD PROPOSALS AS PART OF A PACKAGE, NOT AS PART OF PROPOSALS, AND OF COURSE THAT PACKAGE WAS TURNED DOWN. DON'T THINK YOU CAN GO INTO TALKS UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED COMPROMISES, SO HE HAS SHOWN THAT HE IS PREPARED TO DO THAT, CERTAINLY DON'T BELIEVE THAT THOSE PROPOSALS, THOSE CONCESSIONS IN ISOLATION ARE SENSIBLE, I WOULD WANT TO SEE THE WHOLE PACKAGE IN WAS PUT FORWARD, AND TO BE FAIR MR. PATTEN HAS SAID THAT THEY DO
STAND INDIVIDUALLY, BUT THEY STAND AS PART OF A PACKAGE
OTHER
FORMS IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO REACH LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
REQUIRE OTHERS?
THAT
NOT
THAT WOULD AGREEMENT. ANY
