EU Leaders Summit.

The leaders of the national governments that make up the European Union (EU) are currently having a summit in Brussels. The main topic on the agenda is the adoption of the Lisbon Treaty and the sub issue of whether Tony Blair should become the EU President. The second item on the agenda is the upcoming Copenhagen climate change summit (COP 15)and specifically how less economically developed EU members will fund cuts in carbon emissions. They are obviously pushing for subsidies from the more economically developed EU members who are equally obviously resisting.

Britain is attempting to muddy the waters and by doing so block an agreement at the COP 15 by also making this already complicated discussion one about how to fund a negotiated settlement with me over the Bristol Abuse Case. On that point I think I should make one thing perfectly clear and beyond dispute;

The Bristol Abuse Case was and is an action of the British State. Therefore I will not be accepting any settlement that is not funded in it's entirety by the dissolution of British assets. If Britain is trying to tell anybody anything else then it is unaware of its own negotiating position.
