Mr Blair Comfortable with Treaty

So here we have it.

Mr Blair's spokesman said Britain was playing a leading role in Europe's eastward expansion and was comfortable with the treaty.

He quite obviously has not read it or he is a total traitor. Take your pick.

Obviously we weren't here in 1957, and we've been playing catch-up ever since, he said.

One of the most vacous arguments that is constantly used. We are out of the loop because we joined late. There was a reason we missed out in 1957, unfortunately later leaders were not made of such sensible stuff.
