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, I very much welcome the positive note that my noble and learned friend brings to all of us. He is also right about the Single European Act, which was a vital and game-changing initiative. I agree with him that nothing is ever quite as bad as you think it is, and perhaps some things are not quite as good as you think they are either. Nevertheless, the Prime Minister made the right decision on Thursday night and, if he were asked again, he would do the same thing.
