Proceeding contribution from Lord Strathclyde (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 December 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
My Lords, only the noble Lord could come out with that particular quip. Of course we feared the dangers to our national interests or we would not have said what we did. It takes two to agree but it also takes two to disagree. The other 26 could have wholly accepted that we had a deep concern about our national interest and agreed with us. Then there would have been a treaty of the 27.
