Proceeding contribution from Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 December 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on EU Council.
EU Council
I am grateful to my hon. Friend for his support. The key issue for me was not whether this would be popular today, tomorrow or next week, but what was the right thing for Britain, and I judged that a treaty without safeguards was not right for Britain. [Interruption.] For all the interruptions from Opposition Members, I think that until they answer the question ““Would you sign this treaty?””, a little bit of silence is needed.
