Clegg risks new rift with call for EU to bypass Cameron's veto
Andrew Grice
Nick Clegg defied David Cameron by calling for the pact on fiscal union planned by other European Union countries to be "absorbed" into the EU's governing treaties.
The move would anger Conservative Eurosceptics, who claim it would undermine the veto wielded by David Cameron at last month's EU summit. His veto forced the other 26 nations to forge a separate "treaty outside the EU treaties".
Incorporating the agreement would mean Britain accepting the deal.
