It has been reported that Boris Johnson has made this statement on the new EU Treaty situation that's engulfing Prime Minister Cameron and the Government.
"If there is a new treaty at 27, if there is a new EU treaty that creates a kind of fiscal union within the eurozone, then we would have absolutely no choice either to veto it or to put it to a referendum."
"If they set up an economic government of Europe that involves very substantial fiscal transfers to poorer regions of the EU, that involved budgetary control over national economies in the way that is being proposed, if they try do go down that route towards a fiscal union, then certainly I think that should be something ... frankly, it's the wrong way to go and I think we should be opposing it."
Back Boris 2012.
