Treaty of Lisbon (No. 2)

I negotiated for a long period in the EU, so will the hon. Gentleman accept from me that one is more likely to achieve one's national interest under the mechanism of QMV than by having a veto, because all the other countries know that if they steamroller a country in those circumstances, it can be done to them? The idea of consensus that that encourages greatly defends national interests, rather than damages them.
