Europe
« Windfall Tax | Back to most recent briefing | The Tote »
Asked what the timetable would be for the Europe Bill and would it be passed by summer recess, the PMS said people would have to check with the Foreign Office for the exact timetable.
Asked if the Prime Minister was still confident that the Bill would go through, the PMS said that he was. It was an important vote for the Government and we hoped that it would get as much support as possible, but it remained the case that we were confident in our position and in getting the vote through.
Asked if the Prime Minister believed that a frontbencher should resign after voting against the party line, the PMS said that it was a hypothetical question that did not relate to the party of Government. Asked whether the Prime Minister would vote tonight, the PMS confirmed that he was intending to.
