1981: Collins stuns the nation at Prime Minister's Questions. "To my right honorable friend, on this matter," he said in response to a question on the resignation of Home Secretary Mike Rutherford, "I have no reply at all."

"No reply at all," he repeated, as the speaker shouted for order over the jeering opposition.

Mr Collins’s efforts in 1985 to institute a “Casual Friday” policy in the House of Commons is remembered with derision in Britain. Yet, the influence of the proposed policy is still seen around the world today, most notably in Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US Senator John Fetterman.
