The noble Baroness is making an interesting speech about democracy, but would she explain one mystery that I really do not understand? How is it that the Liberal party was the first party to propose an in/out referendum on this issue?

How can the Liberal party, having been in that position, now say it is going to ignore the results of the referendum?
