There are 365, and we're on clause 10. It will take weeks to get through this bill if the Conservatives continue doing this.
I respect that they can oppose the bill. Their votes on division will reflect that, but the only conclusion I can draw from forcing a process where we are forcing a recorded vote on every single clause when there is no amendment to it or discussion or questions, is that the Conservatives purely want to delay this bill. If I'm missing something, I'd be happy to hear their alternate explanation for that.
Regardless of partisan perspective on this committee, all we're talking about here is the efficiency of how this committee works. We're going to get through this one way or the other. I don't see how it's common sense to drag out a bill and take weeks to pass something that we'll pass in the end. It could be passed quickly. They themselves said they would pass it quickly half an hour ago if they got a witness they wanted.
I'm just wondering if my Conservative colleagues can explain to me, if I'm missing something, that their only purpose in enforcing an individual vote on every clause is to delay the passage of the bill?
