Proceeding contribution from Dawn Butler (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 April 2017. It occurred during Debate on Early Parliamentary General Election.
Early Parliamentary General Election
On the timetable before yesterday, the Prime Minister would have concluded her negotiation by 2019. We would have gone into the general election in 2020, a year later, talking about her deal. That would have given the country an outlook as to what it would be voting for. She is asking the country to strengthen her hand, but does she agree that she is asking the country to vote for a blank cheque?
