Proceeding contribution from Baroness Falkner of Margravine (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 April 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on European Union Bill.


European Union Bill

I think that the noble Lord, Lord Richard, knows exactly what I am talking about, and what I am talking about is trust. I am talking about an attitude. He can read Hansard as well as I will tomorrow, and he will see that I said that there was a tone—I did not suggest that the word ““deference”” had been used—in proceedings earlier this evening, and the tone is, ““We know best””.
