Proceeding contribution from Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 October 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

That one obviously took a long time to construct. I believe that the eurozone countries are coming together and seeing the need for a big and bold solution. That needs to happen. It will not solve the problem—because there are still major stresses and strains within the eurozone that need to be dealt with in the long term—but I think that it will happen this week. It is up to the House of Commons how it votes tonight, but I am clear that it is in our interest to be in the EU but seeking our national advantage and national interest at all times.
