Proceeding contribution from Emma Reynolds (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 January 2012. It occurred during Topical debate and Backbench debate on European Council.


European Council

The process of re-engagement might be under way, but the Prime Minister's decision to walk out of a summit that did not have a text to it has undermined our influence in the EU. His spectacular mishandling bought him short-term political respite from the pressure of his Back Benchers, but they will always want more, and we heard that in today's debate.
