Anne McLaughlin John McNally Carol Monaghan Gavin Newlands John Nicolson Brendan O’Hara Kirsten Oswald Tommy Sheppard Chris Stephens Alison Thewliss Owen Thompson Richard Thomson Dr Philippa Whitford Pete Wishart
That this House declines to give the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill a Second Reading because 62 per cent of voters in Scotland supported remaining in the European Union in the 2016 European Union referendum and 74 per cent of the voters in Scotland supported political parties that proposed either remaining in the European Union or a second referendum on European Union membership in the 2019 General Election; and agrees that the United Kingdom must not leave the European Union before gaining the legislative consent of the Scottish Parliament.
Sir Jeffrey M. DonaldsonSammy WilsonMr Gregory CampbellGavin RobinsonPaul GirvanIan Paisley
Jim Shannon Carla Lockhart
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill because the Withdrawal Agreement of October 2019 substantively concludes arrangements for Northern Ireland prior to agreement on the future relationship between the European Union and the United Kingdom and without adequate provision for applying the consent mechanisms in the Belfast Agreement as given effect by the Northern Ireland Act 1998.
Sir Edward DaveyMr Alistair CarmichaelTim FarronChristine JardineLayla MoranWera Hobhouse
Jamie Stone Sarah Olney Munira Wilson Daisy Cooper Wendy Chamberlain Geraint Davies
That this House declines to give the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill a Second Reading because it does not give the people of the United Kingdom the final say on the Withdrawal Agreement through a public vote with the option to remain in the European Union, because it fails to ensure continued tariff-free access to the Customs Union and Single Market, because it fails to guarantee the rights of UK citizens in the EU and EU citizens in the UK, and because it erodes protections for workers’ rights, children’s rights and the environment.
Notes:The Speaker has not yet considered the Bill for Certification. Queen’s consent to be signified on Third Reading.
