Lib Dems will continue to fight for the rule of law

 

Speaking after the Commons votes on the Internal Market Bill, where 255 MPs voted against the Government's determination to break international law, Liberal Democrat Business Spokesperson Sarah Olney said:

“Liberal Democrat and Alliance MPs took a clear stand for the rule of law and for stability in Northern Ireland against Boris Johnson’s tactics to violate the EU Withdrawal Agreement.

“With members across the house joining to stand for what’s right and voting against the Government, Boris Johnson must take this as a clear message: there is no consensus in Parliament about his disregard for the rule of law and the UK’s international standing.

“Liberal Democrats will continue to hold the Government to account and work across party lines to protect the UK’s interests.”
