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

No, we failed to provide a referendum on the European constitution. As Members know, the constitution fell because of referendums in France and Holland. What came afterwards was a constitutional treaty, namely the Lisbon treaty, on which no referendum was ever promised.
