The House of Lords.

THERESA May has been urged to overrule the House of Lords if peers attempt to block Brexit.

The Bow Group, chaired by former cabinet minister Lord Tebbit, alongside the eurosceptic Bruges Group raised concerns Remain-backing Lords will change the EU Withdrawal Bill in a way which keeps Britain tied to Brussels rule. 

Philip Davies MP echoed the warning Remainers will attempt to water down Britain’s decision to unshackle itself from the bloc and insisted Parliament “must act on the will of the people not the Lords”. 

Shipley MP Mr Davies said: “Whilst the House of Lords has a Remain majority, they would do well to remember their unelected nature and the potential backlash to their shunning of a majority decision taken by the public. 

“Parliament must act on the will of the people not the Lords.” Express.
