Proceeding contribution from Lord Clinton-Davis (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 December 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
The complacency of the Leader of the House is mind-boggling. Has he not managed to discomfort the majority of the Liberal Democrats? He appeals to the worst instincts of the British people. As far as I can see, there is to be no repatriation of powers, no European Union allies and no real protection of the City. The Government have not been courageous but desperately cowardly and, most of all, barren of influence. Is that not the case?
