Alexander: Cameron’s euro veto has let Britain down
Shadow foreign secretary Douglas Alexander tells the Today programme Labour would also have used Britain's veto – but done so from a stronger position:
"I regret how badly David Cameron's negotiations strategy has left Britain down.
"Britain is more isolated at any point since we jointed the European Community. This outcome is not a sign of strength from the prime minister, it is a sign of weakness.
"It was a direct consequence of a misconceived and shambolic negotiating strategy.
"Equally it is not in Britain's interest to be isolated… we would have built alliances with other countries across Europe."
