Proceeding contribution from Crispin Blunt (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 March 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
The very first line of the presidency conclusions from the summit are:"““The fundamentals of the European Union economy remain sound: public deficits have been more than halved since 2005 and public debt has also declined””." As by 2005 the Prime Minister had been in charge of the economy for eight years, will he explain why in the ensuing period the United Kingdom made such a significant negative contribution to the wider EU position?
