Proceeding contribution from Jon Trickett (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Debate and Debate on treaty on Lisbon Treaty (No. 3).


Lisbon Treaty (No. 3)

May I draw my right hon. Friend's attention to Tony Blair's speech to the CBI in November 2003, in which he explicitly said:"““On issues like…agency workers, Europe must think first and foremost about jobs and competition””—" namely, free markets? Is it not clear that the former Prime Minister gave primacy to competition over social protections?
