Article 50

Proceeding contribution from Anne Main (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 January 2017. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Article 50.

The right hon. Member for Carshalton and Wallington (Tom Brake) talked about our democracy—in fact, he is the only representative of his political party in the Chamber—but would it be very undemocratic, in my right hon. Friend’s opinion, for him to go down to the House of Lords and encourage 120 unelected Members of the House of Lords to play ping-pong and mess about with the Bill? We must deliver what the British people have asked for.
