EU Referendum Rules

Proceeding contribution from Chuka Umunna (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 September 2016. It occurred during e-petition debate on EU Referendum Rules.

The hon. Gentleman and I had many debates during the referendum campaign, but, I am sorry, I do not accept his point about accountability. There is a complete contradiction here: many on the leave side made accountability and transparency the cornerstones of their campaign, but when people legitimately seek to hold members of the Government who voted leave to account for their pledges, they now say that there should be no accountability. To me, that is contradictory and not acceptable.
