Proceeding contribution from Lord Trimble (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 December 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

My Lords, we are not absolutely sure of this but is it not likely that the issue will come back to the European Council if there is any attempt or desire on behalf of the eurozone people to make use of the institutions of the Union? When the issue comes back, we will be there making our point of view known. Did the Leader of the House hear on Radio 4 this morning the comment by the distinguished American economist that if you are not prepared to walk away you will have no leverage?
