Text

The Member persists with misrepresentation. At no point did I say that the Supreme Court judgement was entirely irrelevant or without merit. Indeed, I have made the point now on a number of occasions that I respect the Supreme Court judgement, and no one is arguing against it. It is impossible, Mr Deputy Speaker, to have an orderly debate when Members deliberately misrepresent what other Members have said.
