« Nigel Griffiths | Back to most recent briefing | Incident in the Persian Gulf »
Asked for details on the Prime Minister’s movements over the weekend, the PMS replied that the Prime Minister would be travelling to Berlin on Saturday to participate in the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome celebrations.
Asked for the Government’s position on a reference in the Berlin Declaration that a Constitution could be completed by June next year, the PMS replied that decisions on the future of the Constitution would be for discussion at the European Council in June. Asked if we would object to a declaration with a specific reference to the European Constitution, the PMS replied that the Declaration was not the place for getting into any detail, but we should not be talking about the contents of the Declaration before it was published. Asked if the Prime Minister had seen the declaration yet, the PMS replied that the normal diplomatic drafting channels were underway and active. Asked to clarify what that meant, the PMS said it meant exactly what she said.

He could go down in history as the greatest P.M.since Churchill. That would be some Legacy–far better than Blair and Iraq!!!Go on Gordon Do it for Britain!!!

Comment by V Voisey — 29 May 2007 on 2:59 pm | LinkI think it is absolutely essential that the Prime Minister gives the British public a vote over any more changes to the EU Constitution. It has gone too far already in interfering in the day-to-day running of our lives. The edicts are becoming crushing, levelling, infuriating, tedious and totally unnecessary to the extent that all national identity will be completely obliterated. This kind of economic union was definitely NOT what the British public voted for when they said "Yes" to Europe. For my part, given the chance, it would be a heart-felt, resounding, unequivocal "NO" had I the vote again, much as I enjoy meeting, communicating with and getting on well with my continental neighbours.
