Proceeding contribution from David Heathcoat-Amory (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on treaty on Lisbon Treaty (No.1).
Lisbon Treaty (No.1)
No, I do not accept what the hon. Gentleman says. My responsibility, as an elected Member of Parliament, is to look after the people I represent in my constituency. They know me, they have access to me and they either vote for me or reject me at elections. That is what they look to in a representative Chamber, but in no way do they regard the European Parliament in the same way.
