I think that would be a really stupid thing to do, you can really only legitimately use your veto once therefore it must be of crucial national importance. Are you suggesting we use this veto to maintain a very low corporation tax which ultimately benefits the richest technology companies on the planet. The optics of that would be terrible.Ireland has a veto, when it comes to the EU agreeing to things like tax harmonisation, and we should use it, even if it does upset a few of our bigger European partners. It won't be a surprise to them, anyway, given we will just be maintaining our clear long term position on Corporation Tax.
You say we have no natural resources but we have one very valuable natural resource that we have given away , fishing . We were laughing at the Brits for making such a big deal out of fishing . Surely if we were to use a veto on anything it should have been on fish, yes it is a small part of our economy now but that is precisely because we have handicapped it. We would be on much stronger grounds morally to fight for our rights on this .
