WHAT a shambles the Tories are in over Europe yet again.

Voting against Jean-Claude Juncker has been a disaster for the PM and MP for Witney and deeply embarrassing for Britain.

Absurdly Juncker, like Cameron, is a centre-right politician. Both support the same damaging austerity that has held back recovery.

Our Prime Minister is playing games to try to impress his Europe-hating MPs.

The Oxford area above all depends on the rest of Europe for jobs, exports and investment.

The Prime Mminister is putting all that at risk by throwing his toys out of the pram.

We need more co-operation with our European partners, not less. Only a Labour Government will work hard in Europe to get the best deal for the people of this country.

Cllr JOHN TANNER
(Labour) City Councillor for Littlemore and County Councillor for Isis
