Proceeding contribution from Bernard Jenkin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 October 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
May I join others in commending my right hon. Friend for his leadership on Libya, for which he deserves considerable credit? May I also thank him for the constructive tone that he is adopting towards those of us who will support today's motion? So many parties have again and again promised a referendum, and the British people clearly want a say over our future relationship with the European Union. Does he understand our anxiety that it is ironic that the House of Commons is likely to vote heavily against what the British people want?
