Cameron changed nothing and lost precious influence and standing. It's only really a veto if the UK actively seeks to prevent the 26 from using the instruments of the EU apparatus to implement the plan for the 26. Not really a position we'd want to be in; we'd be playing into French hands. That said, numbers do not make something right. A sizable majority of Germans in the 1930s gave explicit or tacit approval to the regime that was developing at the time. I'm not making this point to link the current crop of Germans with the Nazis - it's just an example of how "popular opinion" can be massively at odds with "what's right". So where do we find ourselves really? We've got a PM who has said no to a European proposal and we've got 26 countries against us. Going by the numbers alone, we seem to be completely in the wrong. 26 vs 1. No argument to be had in the numbers, if you're just prepared to treat them that way. Thing is, you look a little deeper and you ask a couple of questions. Would it be possible that some of the other 26 countries may have their own motives? How many of those 26 countries have real power, real influence? When it comes down to it, it amounts to about two. Previously, we might have been able to point out the likes of Spain and Italy as potential European powerhouses. No longer. Democracy has already been suspended in Italy so that it can settle its debts. Spain is not far behind. Who else? Germany and France, and that's about it. So really, our disagreement is with France and Germany. The Germans have to back the French if they want to keep the Euro. The French have their own reasons for wanting Britain out of the trading game ( Sarkozy has been petitioning for this since 2009). I have absolutely no love for Cameron or the Conservatives. They need to make some major policy adjustments to ever be capable of attracting my vote. Regardless, this was a sh*tty deal, a sh*tty plan and honestly, there was no way we were coming out of this with a win. Our options? Sign a bad deal or walk away from it. While I accept that Cameron could have potentially come away from the situation with a better result, we just don't know what the respective positions of the major players are, absent some sort of evidence. Right now, the case against the UK consists of France, Germany and 24 other countries sh*t-scared of "what happens next" telling the whole world we're wrong. On the other hand, we have David Cameron telling us that he has acted in Britain's interests. My view is that there is a lot of bs from not just the UK and our European partners, but also the people in Washington. Washington, Beijing et all just want it sorted. They don't want to hear anything about democratic problems or individual nation state concerns. They don't have our interests at heart and they've little interest in helping us where it won't help them. Let's not get hooked up on "precious influence and standing", because really, it's just self-interest from countries who haven't quite got what they want.

The 'veto' means that the other '26 countries' can't act independently of the 'European Union' (by virtue if existing European Union law). If the 'European Union' is true to itself then, by definition, the UK maintains an influential position despite the establishment of this EU sub-organisation. If...

Then why was he publically backing the veto on Friday - http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2011/dec/09/clegg-cameron-veto-eu-summit As I read it Clegg agreed to the path the PM took, and then as he realised how badly he had underestimated the depth of feeling within his own party, has been backpeddling furiously ever since.

dune Posted 13 December, 2011 Author Share Posted 13 December, 2011 (edited) Another yougov poll just out: CON 39%, LAB 40%, LDEM 10% The three latest polls now show +1 Lab, Tie, +1 Lab. This is in contrast with the polls prior to DC's veto of +5 Lab, +7 Lab, +4 Lab, +6 Lab. I was right all along. The right of the Tory party is the centre ground of public opinion. It is essential that DC does not deviate now even if it means the Lib Dems breaking the coalition. The current tack is the path to a Tory majority govt. That said I think we need to keep the tree huggers dangling a bit longer. Spring 2012 for an election looks good to me. By that time I expect the UK economy to have surpassed predictions and shocked a few people. Edited 13 December, 2011 by dune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumblings from our EU partners is that they will seek ways to use these institutions regardless. As I said in an earlier post, it's only really a veto if Britain follows this up by preventing the 26 from using EU institutions. Otherwise, it's just a news story and a lot of bad PR for us internationally. Its biggest meaning is probably symbolic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is for this reason that DC's tough stance will imho reap it's rewards and I fully expect our demands to be met in due course. Merkel will see to that. She is no fool.
