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


European Council

My Lords, if I may strike a slightly more optimistic note, is my noble friend aware that our achievement in getting major headway on the Single European Act at the Luxembourg summit followed immediately after the Milan summit, in which our agenda scarcely received any attention at all? That is another rather surprising matter that went ahead without us having much enthusiasm for it. Is my noble friend aware that the future is not as gloomy or as difficult as some people might believe?
