Proceeding contribution from Mark Hendrick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.


European Union Bill

I have been quite dismayed by some of the contributions to the debate, from both Government Members and Opposition Members. It is well known that the Bill is supposed to be red meat for some of the Eurosceptics on the Conservative Benches, many of whom have wanted referendums in the past. I remember them asking for a referendum on the Nice treaty, then on the constitution and then on Lisbon.
