Lord Moynihan of Chelsea (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 January 2025

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

The noble Lord, Lord Watson, reminded us of solidarity. Does my noble friend agree that there is a great difference between legislative—which is to say coerced—solidarity, which some would call theft under the law, versus the voluntary and friendly solidarity that is already being shown by the Premier League? Does he agree that there is a fundamental difference between the two and that it is a subversion of the word to call it solidarity?
