Proceeding contribution from Lord Hayward (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 September 2026. It occurred during Debate on bill on Representation of the People Bill.
Representation of the People Bill
My Lords, I strongly support what the noble Lord, Lord Rooker, has just said. He has identified a problem. It is not new. It has evolved over a period of decades, but it is a real problem that this Chamber is facing now. I strongly support the detail outlined by the noble Lord, Lord Rooker, which we face and which the Commons has not addressed.
