Proceeding contribution from Lord Forsyth of Drumlean (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on Constitutional Renewal.
Constitutional Renewal
My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Lord. On his point about breaching trust with the electorate and unscrupulous behaviour, does not promising a referendum on a treaty and then reneging on that leads to exactly the kind of problem he is describing, a promise made by his own party as well as the Benches opposite?
