Proceeding contribution from Jacob Rees-Mogg (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 November 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Croatian Accession and Irish Protocol) Bill.


European Union (Croatian Accession and Irish Protocol) Bill

I am grateful to you, Mr Deputy Speaker. How lucky it is that there is unlimited time for this particular debate.

The Irish have shown with their protocol that it can be done. In fact, this is an exciting opportunity for this country. The Bill will be taken, and will be amendable by, a Committee of the whole House, and there has been much rejoicing at the conversion of the Labour party to deep, true-blooded, thorough-going Euroscepticism.
