Conduct Of The Hon. Member For Witney

EDM number 196 in 2009-10, proposed by Bob Spink on 24/11/2009.
Categorised under the topic of EU law and treaties.

That this House notes the statement of the hon. Member for Witney, Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition, of 26 September 2007 giving a `cast iron guarantee' that should he become Prime Minister in a Conservative government, there would be a referendum on any treaty emerging from the Lisbon negotiations; further notes with regret that the hon. Member no longer intends to hold such a referendum should he have the opportunity to do so; further notes that such actions make people distrustful of politics; and therefore calls on the next government, whoever may form it, to let the people have their say on the European Union.

This motion has been signed by a total of 4 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
