Proceeding contribution from Tony Lloyd (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 December 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

My right hon. Friend rightly pointed out that our natural allies in central Europe would have felt betrayed by Britain if we had failed to reach a deal. If we had betrayed our own national interest in not getting a deal, with whom would we have negotiated in the European Parliament and with whom would a future Tory Government negotiate in that Parliament?
