Proceeding contribution from Lord Willoughby de Broke (UK Independence Party) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 31 January 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on EU Council.
EU Council
My Lords, I want to follow the point made by the noble Lord, Lord Dholakia, in reference to competition. Is not this Council statement just a rehash of the European agenda, which was such a notable failure? Does the Minister agree that, as usual, it is all words and no action? Do not figures of 23 million unemployed in the European Union and 51 per cent youth unemployment in Spain show that the European Union is a total failure for its citizens? Would it not be much better to leave before we get sucked even further into the euro mire?
