East-West Relations (22 Feb 1990)

Bill Cash: I wish to speak mainly about balance—the balance of argument and the balance of power in Europe.

At the same time, I detected in some of the...

Business of the House (11 Jan 1990)

Bill Cash: My right hon. and learned Friend knows of the anxiety on both sides of the House about the scrutiny of European legislation.

Social Charter (29 Nov 1989)

Bill Cash: Does the hon.

That will have a devastating effect on jobs,...

Social Charter (29 Nov 1989)

Bill Cash: Does my hon. Friend agree that, in respect of technical change, there is now a movement against the less skilled worker? Therefore, the iniquity of the Opposition's position is that they are condemning people in the less developed parts of the Community to a lower wage structure and, at the same time, condemning those in our country who are in a similar position as a result of the Labour...

Orders of the Day — The Economy (28 Nov 1989)

Bill Cash: As we move towards 8 December and the summit at which new developments towards a federal Europe will be discussed, we should reflect on the concerted attempts that have been made to undermine the position of this House over the past few months and years.
