Lord True (Con)
My Lords, I think the Greens are very capable of making their voice heard in your Lordships’ House.
Baroness Hayter of Kentish Town (Lab)
My Lords, the Minister has twice referred to the number of defeats. There is no point in having a second Chamber if we always agree with the first Chamber. The whole point is that we have different views here. We ask the other House to think again. But sort of threatening the numbers because we defeat something that the Government have done and ask them to think again is surely not the right way to consider the role of this House.
