Proceeding contribution from Lord Pearson of Rannoch (UK Independence Party) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 May 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on European Union (Amendment) Bill.
European Union (Amendment) Bill
Some of us have been hearing this for many years—in my case, since the Maastricht debates of 1992. We have always been told that it will be jam tomorrow with the common fisheries and common agricultural policies. The noble Lord has just referred to the narrow interests which have been blocking progress towards reform. I ask him again: what are those narrow interests? May we or may we not expose the countries which, in the Council of Ministers, block this reform?
