Cameron's EU summit appearance

Unease among Liberal Democrats before David Cameron's latest look at a vital EU summit has been created clear by a rare intervention by their former leader, Charles Kennedy, who urges the prime minister to require an energetic and assured role at the guts of the ecu Union.

Amid disquiet among Eurosceptic cupboard ministers once the prime minister seemingly modified tack on EU establishments being employed to enforce new rules for the eurozone, Kennedy warns that the party won't tolerate any repeat of the wielding of the British veto.

Kennedy speaks out in a very letter to the Guardian because the prime minister travels to Brussels for an EU summit designed to specialise in promoting economic growth.

Leaders of the 17-strong eurozone, and as several as 9 alternative EU leaders, are hoping to succeed in a political agreement on a replacement treaty that may enforce a fiscal compact for the eurozone. they're having to barter the treaty outside the formal design of the EU as a result of Cameron vetoed a revision of the Lisbon treaty last month once failing to win safeguards for town of London.

The prime minister reached out last week to the German chancellor, Angela Merkel, who is pushing for the robust new eurozone rules, by agreeing that the ecu court of justice may be used to enforce a replacement sanctions regime. Cameron had previously solid doubt on using the EU's establishments to enforce rules outside the official design of the union.

Kennedy makes it clear that Cameron must not ever once more isolate Britain as he did finally month's summit when he wielded the British veto. the previous Lib Dem leader, who is president of the ecu Movement, tells the Guardian: "We wish to visualize the British government work with our EU partners to create the EU a vehicle for growth and employment. If we tend to are to stay our place within the world we tend to should regain our competitiveness and that we will try this higher once we work along. Britain's place is at the centre of where selections are created."

Meanwhile, European leaders are to hunt respite from the euro and sovereign debt crises at the summit by making an attempt to come back up with policies aimed toward generating economic growth and jobs creation, particularly among the young.

But with the EU drifting towards a double-dip recession, banks' deleveraging possible to cause a replacement credit crunch, and austerity and budget cuts on an unprecedented scale across giant components of Europe, such policies look possible to resemble empty guarantees for the time being, say diplomats and analysts.
