I was a silent remainer. I have been a Liberal most of my life, voted Liberal in #GE2019 and am proud to know Ros Altmann and Gina Miller as friends.

Yesterday I bowed in front of the Throne in the House of Lords, Ros Altmann beside me and saw this great place of parliamentary democracy for the first time.

Last night, shedelivered this short but powerful speech wishing the Lords not to stand in the way of Brexit. It was the right response. She quoted Martin Luther-King

“We must accept finite disappointment and live with infinite hope”

She spoke for me too.
