Proceeding contribution from James Clappison (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 March 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.
European Council
I warmly welcome my right hon. Friend's statement. Among the dubious legal matters contained in the fiscal compact, which is not an EU treaty, are the provisions relating to what is described as ““reverse qualified majority voting””, which sounds bad and is even worse than it sounds. Will he be extremely vigilant and ensure that this coercive and profoundly undemocratic practice is not extended into the EU proper?
