Proceeding contribution from Lord Grenfell (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 13 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.

European Union Bill

Before the noble Lord sits down, he appeared to suggest that there were a large number of red lines which the Labour Government had introduced and that these were now under threat. The fact is that there were, I think, six red lines in the Lisbon treaty. Every one of them is now enshrined in the two treaties as amended by the Lisbon treaty, so one should not cry wolf where that is not appropriate.
