Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Intergovernmental Conference.
Intergovernmental Conference
I shall be campaigning strongly for a referendum and believe that my view is shared by millions of Labour supporters and trade unionists throughout Britain. My hon. Friend has talked about making the European Union more transparent and more democratic, yet the European Council meets in secret, has no minutes and simply adopts conclusions drawn up by bureaucrats. Is my hon. Friend going to try to make the European Council more democratic?
