UK: EU Membership

Lord Pearson of Rannoch Excerpts

Tuesday 7th January 2014 Lords Chamber

[Lord Pearson of Rannoch (UKIP)]

Surely the noble Baroness did not suggest that, were we to leave the political construct of the European Union and maintain our free trade, as of course we would because it sells us much more than we sell it, any jobs would be lost. She was not saying that, was she?

[Baroness Warsi]

I did not quite catch the question, but I can assume what the noble Lord asked. There are great benefits to our membership of the European Union.
