Speaking on BBC Breakfast, Chris Grayling the Leader of the House of Commons said:
Quote MessageIt’s not a question of bullyboy tactics. You have to bear in mind last night Lord Butler the former Cabinet secretary said very clearly that the House of Lords was taking a constitutional step that it should not take. We can’t simply leave the Labour Party and the Liberal Democrats and the House of Lords to tear up the manifesto on which we were elected in May. That’s a real issue politically for all of us."
