Proceeding contribution from Angela Eagle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 July 2015. It occurred during Debate on English Votes for English Laws.


English Votes for English Laws

I agree with the right hon. Gentleman about the diagram. It looks more like a plate of spaghetti than a way of legislating sensibly. As for his question, how often that “ping pong to the power squared” would actually happen would depend on how much disagreement there was between the other place and this place. I think that we in the House of Commons must think very carefully about quite how complex some of these legislative processes become if there is contention.
