European Union Bill

Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on European Union Bill.
Would my hon. Friend be interested to know that I was talking to an extremely eminent lawyer, although I hesitate to say who it was, and when he heard my arguments on clause 18, he said, ““If a majority of the justices of the Supreme Court took the view that you are taking, it would be open to Parliament the next day””—he used those words—““to reverse that””? That troubles me, because if that happened it would precipitate a 100% crisis.
