THE Labour Party was perfectly entitled to spend £80,000 of its own money trying to persuade the Courts to overthrow the Parliamentary Boundary Commission’s proposals for new constituencies. But once the House of Lords had ruled against
liam Whitelaw who, as Home Secretary, laid the appropriate orders imple menting the Commission’s proposals without amend ment, had more to comp lain about than most. His own constituency is going to be absurdly large and with 200 polling stations almost unmanageable.

arrive my secretary told me that there was a demonstration outside and the BBC was filming a lot
of people jumping up and down waving banners. I suggested that someone should go outside and say that I was prepared to come out and make a statement about my deci
sion. When, however, a press
officer went outside he was told by the men with the camera that they were not interested in what the Minister had to say. They were only in terested in filming the de monstration. I asked, for the pro
ducer to be contacted. He also was only interested in the demonstration — and flatly refused to in clude a statement by myself in the piece he planned for the Midlands News later that day. Later he phoned back with second thoughts and the item was postponed u n t i l th e fo l low in g Monday when I was al lowed to say my piece; but the BBC does some times have a very funny way o f g o in g about things.

schools can take more pupils* why not actively encourage families in the towns to take advantage of them. That way we would keep schools which are so important for the life of village communities and reduce the ■ size of some over-big schools in the towns.
