"Peer goes the whole hog, as he defends the Government line on the Lisbon Treaty", Andrew Gimson writes.
Obviously a reference then to the 'snouts in the trough' accusation increasingly being levelled at Europhiles!
The article makes much of the fact the Foreign Office Minister's laughter was a wonder to behold. So he presumably thought the whole subject under discussion, namely the Irish and the Lisbon Treaty, a joke.
It frustrates me to have to point out to this apology for a government minister that those of us who take an interest in matters European do not find the fact that we are subject to laws made by a 'foreign power' a subject of hilarity.
But then, when has any Labour cabinet member, or minister of state, ever shown evidence of possessing a brain - least of all one whose surname contains the letters B, W, N, O and R!
