Proceeding contribution from Jack Straw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Debate and Debate on treaty on Lisbon Treaty (No. 3).
Lisbon Treaty (No. 3)
The history of states in eastern Europe—of course, I bow to the hon. Gentleman's superior knowledge, particularly in respect of Poland—varies, as it does in western European states. Nevertheless, some of the eastern European states had not had any experience of democracy until after the Berlin wall fell—that is simply a matter of straightforward history.
