Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 December 2024

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

I take with a ton of salt the comments from the noble Baroness, Lady Jones. We sat for many hours listening to her, her colleague and others opining, for instance, on the Rwanda Bill. That is scrutiny and oversight. That is holding the Government to account. We on this side make no apologies for doing that; it is what we are here for. It is the proper discharging of our duties. If it takes time to interrogate a flawed Bill, I will not apologise for that.
