Proceeding contribution from Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 June 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

I was focused and listening to every minute of the discussions. We want to get it right in dealing with deficits and encouraging growth, but the conclusions make it clear that those countries with really bad deficit problems have to take action. When one sits at the table and looks at the problems in Greece, and at the difficulties in Spain, one asks oneself who has the biggest budget deficit, and the answer is Britain, because we were left it by the Labour party.
