Letter: Was EU veto the right move?

The UK exported nearly £143 billion of goods and services to the EU in 2010 compared with £121 billion to the rest of the world.

An estimated three million jobs are now dependent on our trade with the EU.

And thanks to our membership Britons have been able to move or work while also retaining their health care.

So was David Cameron's decision to wield the veto in 2011 the right one?

Does that decision represent the British interests or is it a political gamble so he can delight the Eurosceptics and the old Etonians in his party?

Time will tell.
