HC Deb 29 November 1927 vol 211 c285W
Commander BELLAIRS

asked the Prime Minister, in view of the fact that Westminster Bridge was built by the proceeds of a lottery held in 1736, whether the Government will consider a similar method of raising the necessary funds for the proposed Charing Cross Bridge and other bridges?

The PRIME MINISTER

I do not think my hon. and gallant Friend's suggestion would find much favour.
