Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on European Affairs.


European Affairs

It is also worth putting on record that the Single European Act, signed by Margaret Thatcher, gave people the right to travel and work within the European Union. That changed the fundamental structure in which people now operate in the EU. It was not the Labour Government who decided that; it was decided long before we came to power.
