Proceeding contribution from Lord Thomas of Swynnerton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 December 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Accessions) Bill.


European Union (Accessions) Bill

My Lords, the noble Lord has made a very clear explanation and I understand what he is saying. At all events, I regret that we did not bid to lead Europe in the era of the noble Baroness, Lady Thatcher, and I believe that many continental Europeans regret it too.
