Euro: Support for Joining

Debate between Lord Wright of Richmond and Lord Ashton of Hyde

Monday 9th May 2016 Lords Chamber

[Lord Ashton of Hyde]

My Lords, one reason is that I did not think of it. Secondly, I am not responsible for the Questions that are tabled in this House.

[Lord Wright of Richmond (CB)]

My Lords, I think the Minister is probably too young to have been in the House when Lord Dahrendorf was here. He once said—I think in this House but certainly in writing—that anybody who has not changed his mind in the last 10 years has probably not been thinking.

[Lord Ashton of Hyde]

I am too young to have been in the House then, but I know Professor Dahrendorf was at the LSE, which is quite clear that we should remain in the EU.
