The motion
Proposed by Mr James Gray

The motion is in my name and those of 43 colleagues from both sides of the House. If it is passed, it will send a strong message to the other place—the House of Lords—that its unilateral decision to end the ancient practice of using vellum to record Acts of Parliament is not accepted by this House. If that occurs, I very much hope that the other House will listen carefully to the views of this place. We have moved from a matter of grave significance to the world and to humanity— [ Interruption. ]

"Rebels" are members who voted against their party's majority; Independent and Speaker roles have no party whip.
