"we've been influential in preventing an EU army since you mention it. We've vetoed it."?

Really? When did we do that? I believe our Defence Secretary has stated quite clearly that "We WILL veto it", but that has not happened as yet.

But this is how the EU Commission works:

"EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker has spoken of the possibility of a ?common military force? at a meeting of EU leaders in Bratislava, to which Britain was not invited."

That is how influential the UK is in Europe. 😂
