    Brilliant speech by Hilary Benn.
    I taught EU law for 25 years and didn't find one, not even ONE, which did not benefit ordinary working people in some way.
    This government is horrendous.

Look through the video again and catch what Hilary Benn said ,he just mentions it in passing ,without admitting the U.K. had very little input ?. And that has been the problem all along , various governments of different types thought that the voter [me & you] were not bright enough to absorb what was going - on ,so they all decided to keep it quiet from the public and now it is all breaking what went - on ,the Marxists & the Re-moaners realise this has all come back to bite them on the a** . It was all wrong and what not was wrong - was hidden ,let the rules & laws ,slide in 2023 - Amen ! .

      There's already a get out clause. Employment agencies ask workers to sign a waver. So the law doesn't apply to the people working in the gig economy and neither does the idea of job security. I remember arguing this with people in the run up to the EU referendum. People were being asked to vote to stay in the EU so they could benefit from workers rights that did not apply to them because of the loopholes which allows employers to deny those rights to the people who need them the most.

    The Tory makes a false argument that legislation was entered into the House without scrutiny under EU rules.
    The UK had, at that time, quite a number of elected MEP's whose job it was to ensure good laws were passed. So these laws did most certainly pass parliamentary scrutiny, with an additional option for a UK government veto.
    The Tories like to act that the EU did things without their consent. This is simply not true. The UK was, in its day, the most influential country deciding exactly what the EU did. Not a single law appeared on the EU statue book without UK approval.

      What positive difference would it make? Likely we'd just end up with two houses like the Commons that either have the same majority party and just vote everything through, or different parties and constantly suffer legislature gridlock. The Lords have detailed debates from a different viewpoint, often proposing amendments to otherwise unworkable Commons bills.
      Undoubtedly there are Lords who work the system and get paid for doing practically nothing, but you don't have to look too deeply into the MPs and their expenses to see that's not unique to the Upper House. I agree the recent (past 2 decades of) expansion of the Lords is unnecessary, and it should have maintained the size after the reforms in 1999.
