European Union (Amendment) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on European Union (Amendment) Bill.
I am following carefully my hon. Friend's powerful speech. Is it not one of the problems with the new high representative—or Foreign Secretary—that if the European Union decides collectively on a particular foreign policy objective, its implementation is down to the high representative? He could mess around with the aid budget at will to achieve that objective.
