Proceeding contribution from David Heathcoat-Amory (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 December 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan and the EU Council.


Afghanistan and the EU Council

Why was the Prime Minister's statement completely silent on the Council agreements on a tangible EU citizenship, a single EU judicial space, an internal security system and what it calls a common asylum system by 2012? As Labour Ministers argued against all those policies during the negotiations on the Lisbon treaty, as I saw for myself on the European Convention, does the Prime Minister regret having to support them now and pretend that he was always in favour of them?
