Proceeding contribution from Ian Davidson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 May 2006. It occurred during Parliamentary proceeding on Future EU Finances and Own Resources.


Future EU Finances and Own Resources

Along with many others, I congratulate the Minister on his new position. May I point out to him, however, that he has a very hard act to follow? Within days of taking the post of Minister for Europe, my right hon. Friend the Member for Paisley and Renfrewshire, South (Mr. Alexander) had managed to get the French and the Dutch to vote against the European constitution, thereby destroying it. Can we expect similar activity on the part of this Minister in relation to the European budget?
