Proceeding contribution from Lord Stevens of Ludgate (Conservative Independent) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 May 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on European Union (Amendment) Bill.


European Union (Amendment) Bill

The Government continually tell us that we are doing better than other countries in the EU so why do we wish to integrate further? Unless we indicate our seriousness by withdrawing and renegotiating our whole relationship we will never improve our situation. That is why I support the amendment to let the people decide.
