Proceeding contribution from Lord Pearson of Rannoch (UK Independence Party) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 15 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union Bill.
European Union Bill
My Lords, as I said on Second Reading, I think that this Bill is a ““thus far and no further”” Bill, and therefore it is to be welcomed. However, it is also a ““shutting the stable door”” Bill, because the European Union already has all the powers it needs to continue down its very unfortunate path towards complete integration, in the teeth of the growing opposition of the people of Europe.
