Recent appearances

  • EU: Future Relationship - Statement 27 Feb 2020

    My Lords, can my noble friend assure the House that, if these discussions with the European Union do not lead to a happy conclusion, the no-deal situation will be brought to Parliament for approval?
  • Business of the House - Motion on Standing Orders: Amendment to the Motion (2A) 4 Sep 2019

    My noble friend perhaps is not aware of the statement by the Supreme Court after the referendum which said that the statute authorising the referendum simply provided for it to be held without specifying the consequences and that the change in the law required to implement the outcome of the referendum must be made in the only way permitted by the UK constitution, namely, by legislation.
  • Business of the House - Motion on Standing Orders: Amendment to the Motion (2A) 4 Sep 2019

    Does my noble friend not accept that, while the British people voted to leave—he is quite right about that—they are entitled to know the terms and conditions of that departure and that that is what the Supreme Court said?
