The chamber is starting to fill up now. The vote can't be that far away - I wonder how many of 'em will be drunk when they lurch through the division lobby?

Some are talking sense.

The British people have never voted to be E.U. members.

The only way to rectify this injustice is to vote for a referendum.

Re: Today's EU question: how would you vote?
Some clown has just argued that he wants a referendum, but not now. A few of 'em have said something similar. It reminds me of the appeasement debates in the same place back in the 1930's - but for Berlin, read Brussels. they're saying do nowt now and hope the problem will go away. The reality is, the longer we leave it, the worse it's going to get.

Yup he was a numpty.

There might never be a chance again for years.

Anyway, the time is nigh.

It's judgement time.

Just heard the call - formal division. I think the 'Aye' vote is going to be a bit bigger than the government planned for.

Like was said, if the government introduced e-petitions, in order to give ordinary people more power, it should have been a free vote.

I know it should have been a free vote.

I notice that labour have kept their elder statesman, the Viscount Stansgate, aka Mr Anthony Wedgewood Benn, the guru to which all self-respecting socialists kow-tow, remarkably quiet. I wonder if it's 'owt to do with the fact that he has always regarded the EEC/EU as an undemocratic rip-off for this country?

Er...yes. If you're a bit stupid.

The correct thing to do is to firstly evacuate your own family safely.

Then dial 999, and let them deal with it professionally.

A simple way i look at this is theres approx twice as many Tory MPs than Labour, which i regard as ruddy disgraceful,
