Proceeding contribution from Marquess of Lothian (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 June 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

Whenever the Prime Minister tries disingenuously to point out our positions in the past, I remind him that both he and his successor as Prime Minister were elected to this House on a manifesto to withdraw from the European Union. If he is so satisfied with and proud of the treaty of last week, why is he so frightened to ask the British people if they agree with his assessment of what he achieved last week?
