Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 2 November 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

My Lords, I have an awful lot to agree with this afternoon. Yes, it is a great shame because there is much substance in the conclusions of the Council. That is the case at every Council but, globally, this Council is particularly important because it was dealing with the key issues of climate change and economic recovery. It is a great shame that Her Majesty’s Official Opposition do not have very clear plans and questions on these fundamental issues.
