Proceeding contribution from Lord Purvis of Tweed (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 11 October 2022. It occurred during Debate on bill on Northern Ireland Protocol Bill.
Northern Ireland Protocol Bill
I thank the noble Lord for giving way since he was obviously referring to me. I am wondering about the noble Lord’s assertion—a serious one: that Parliament was misled by the Prime Minister of the day; that the deal that they presented to Parliament was made under duress. We were not informed about that being the case, but that is the case that he is making. Is that correct?
