European Union (Withdrawal) Bill

Is the noble and learned Lord going to come on to explaining why it was, when he was Attorney-General and working with Tony Blair, he worked so hard to try to get the charter excluded from the Lisbon treaty?

Surely what we are doing now is trying to fulfil the objective that he himself had in mind.
