Could anyone be in favour of legislation by a body which met in secret and published no Official Report, rubber-stamped by an assortment of Stalinists, Trotskyists, neo-Fascists, neo-Nazis, members of Eastern Europe's kleptomaniac nomenklatura, and people who believed the Provisional Army Council of the IRA to be the sovereign body throughout Ireland? Even if, at any given time, several such people sat in the secret legislature itself?
Well, Ted Heath, Margaret Thatcher and John Major were all in favour of this. Nuff said.
Of course Brown should veto any further transfer of power to this thing. If he doesn't, then Parliament should throw it out. And if they don't, then we should throw out the MPs. In fact, we should do that last bit anyway.
