Cameron ready to compromise with Clegg on EU
"Downing Street signalled that Mr Cameron was ready to yield on one of Mr Clegg’s objections — the Prime Minister’s assertion that the new “euro-plus” group of up to 26 nations should not use the institutions of the European Union… Downing Street is paving the way for Britain to accede to the group using EU institutions. The Government had received legal advice and Mr Clegg’s objections had to be taken into account." – Times (£)
