European Union (Withdrawal) Bill

Debate between Matthew Pennycook and Seema Malhotra

Tuesday 12th June 2018 Commons Chamber

[Matthew Pennycook]

I will tell my hon. Friend how we will explain it to them. We will say that their lordships asked us to consider and vote on whether, in the event that a majority of Members of this House do not approve the deal, we should take control of the situation and shape how the Executive then proceed. I think they would support that.

[Seema Malhotra (Feltham and Heston) (Lab/Co-op)]

Will my hon. Friend give way?

[Andrew Bridgen]

Will the hon. Gentleman give way?
