Proceeding contribution from Baroness Farrington of Ribbleton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Friday, 10 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on House of Lords Reform Bill [HL].
House of Lords Reform Bill [HL]
One of the things that I learnt in my youth is the saying, which I am not sure is parliamentary language, ““Quit while you’re winning””. I think that we should, and not debate it further. My experience in this House is that often when one of us speaks, intending to calm things down, somebody somewhere gets offended. Amendment 306A agreed. Amendments 307 to 309 not moved. Amendment 1 not moved. Amendment 1A, in substitution for Amendment 1, not moved. Amendment 1B, as an amendment to Amendment 1A, not moved. Clause 1 : Commission to recommend life peerages Clause 1 : Commission to recommend life peerages Amendments 2 to 4 not moved. Amendments 4A and 4B, in substitution for Amendments 7 and 8, not moved. Amendments 5 to 23 not moved. Amendment 24 Moved by
