European Union (Withdrawal) (No. 6) Bill

Debate between Lord True and Lord Bowness

Report stage (Hansard): House of Lords
Friday 6th September 2019 Lords Chamber

[Lord True]

I would have liked to conclude some time ago, but I have courteously tried to take many interventions. How many more times are the long-suffering people of this country going to be asked to take another delay to what they voted for? Whatever may have happened then or since, on 29 March, they were told that there must be a delay. Now, with this Bill, they are told that 31 October is not enough time and there must be another delay to 31 January 2020. When it comes up to 31 January, how many times will we be told that there has to be another delay? How many times are the long-suffering people of this country going to be asked for delay after delay by those who quite patently want only one thing?

[Lord Bowness (Con)]

My Lords—

[Noble Lords]

Oh!
