Proceeding contribution from Jim Allister (Traditional Unionist Voice) in the House of Commons on Friday, 6 December 2024. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Withdrawal Arrangements) Bill.
European Union (Withdrawal Arrangements) Bill
I will give way to the hon. Member in a moment, because I have mentioned her.
How can the hon. Member, who calls herself a Social Democratic and Labour Member, look her constituents in the eye and say, “I believe you are not worthy to have your laws made by those you elect: I would rather they were made by those you don’t elect”? Is it because the nationalist reach of the protocol is more important than the democratic detriment of the protocol?
