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


European Council

Britain has been trying for many years to get a level playing field in energy policy, so that British people can own French energy companies, just as French people can own British energy companies, and so that we can keep fuel prices low in this country. Is it not vital for us to have qualified majority voting on energy policy, so that we can deal better with our country, and so that we can ensure a more united front when dealing with Russia?
