Andrew Bowie

Conservative — West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 January 2025

Debate

Climate and Nature Bill

Contribution

I did not know it was official Labour party policy to dissolve the other place in its entirety—if it is, please correct me; I would be keen to be educated in that regard—but no, that is not the case. As the hon. Member knows, the governing party in the upper House is determined by which party won the democratic election and commands a majority in this House. That system has worked, and I believe it will continue to work well for many years to come.
