Interference By Foreign Governments In The EU Referendum

EDM number 1026 in 2015-16, proposed by Kate Hoey on 27/01/2016.
Categorised under the topics of EU law and treaties and International politics and government.

That this House recognises the strength of feeling on many sides that will be expressed in the upcoming referendum on EU membership; asserts that the decision is one for the people of the UK, not for foreign governments; deprecates outside interference in our national debate; condemns fearmongering about the consequences of the British public's free vote; specifically rejects the statement of the Irish Taoiseach that if the people of the UK decide to leave the EU this could damage the Northern Ireland peace process; and calls for a respectful debate so that the public can make an informed decision on this very important matter.

This motion has been signed by a total of 12 MPs.
