In the Lords a brilliant reply by Lord Birkenhead to Sir Edward Carson's attack dominated the session. He argued the government would not risk a general election on the settlement and noted only a few Irish Unionists opposed. He said the deal was the best attainable, rejected claims the government was fearfully under pressure, and urged Ulster cooperation with the Southern Parliament while predicting Ireland’s future alignment.
