Lords division · 25 Jul 2000 · No. 3

Football (Disorder) Bill

It was moved by the Lord Cope of Berkeley, in Clause 5, page 2, line 43, to leave out ("three years") and insert ("one year"); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 38

Contents: 174 Not Contents: 136

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 38 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

The party breakdowns are our own analysis of the official voting records (recorded votes only; they do not describe the formal whip). How we work this out.

Peers attend divisions ad hoc, so there is no did-not-vote list. Tellers are counted in the Content and Not Content totals, unlike in the Commons.

Tellers: Lord Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (172)

Not Contents (134)

Tellers (4)
