Proceeding contribution from Mike Penning (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 1 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill.


Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill

I am slightly curious, because I know the hon. Gentleman is a good European. Surely the concept of the European Union is free movement within the European Union. The hon. Gentleman's argument would prevent that movement ethic, because a person would be precluded from moving around by the fact that he must have a commitment back here. If a person is committed to the European Union, he should be able to go around the European Union.
