Lisbon Treaty (No. 3)

Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Debate and Debates on treaty on Lisbon Treaty (No. 3).
I am extremely glad that the right hon. Gentleman is going on a historical journey, because I should like to make this point. What was the most important question raised in the 19th century? It was about the right to vote and democracy, for which people such as John Bright, a member of my family, fought. It is precisely because the arrangements that we are discussing go in exactly the opposite direction, and give power to the European Court of Justice, that I completely reject them.
