Sarah Olney

Liberal Democrat — Richmond Park

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 November 2024

Debate

Lords Spiritual (Women) Act 2015 (Extension) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his point. There was a great flurry of interest when I was stood here on Tuesday, making many of these points about the make-up of the House of Lords. I agree with him that it is extremely strange that the people who spent such a long time discussing these issues on Tuesday afternoon did not want to take the opportunity to discuss them further today.
