I will not agree to anything that will undermine our decision-making ability on taxation policy. There are two issues. The first is that I do not believe it would get to the point in which we would have conversations about a veto on this issue. The reason for that is I know many other countries share our concerns. The protections that we have, such as through the Lisbon treaty, or all of the debates that I have been involved in on this issue, means that I will not agree to anything that will undermine our ability to set our tax policy in key areas.
