Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 5 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on European Union (Amendment) Bill.


European Union (Amendment) Bill

No; my right hon. Friend said ““greater than his majority””. The number of votes for the referendum was actually greater than the number that elected the hon. Member for Eastleigh on the promise to hold a referendum. Secondly, the hon. Member for Eastleigh failed in his campaign to stop people in his constituency voting on that crucial issue. Was that not an anti-democratic disgrace?
