Proceeding contribution from Austin Mitchell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.
European Union Bill
That may be true, but the British Government want Turkey in. I am not unfavourable; I am just saying that its admission will be a fundamental change in Europe and that the Bill will not give the British people a say over any of these matters. [Interruption.] I am not sure whether my right hon. Friend the Member for Rotherham (Mr MacShane) is making a Gallic gesture or whether it is a sign for me to sit down and shut up.
