'Ministers face a battle to get the EU treaty through Parliament after it was agreed by European leaders in Lisbon.
Gordon Brown says he has secured a deal which protects the national interest but Tory leader David Cameron say he is treating Britons "like fools".

The treaty has to be ratified by all EU parliaments next year, before coming into effect in 2009.'
When the agenda is at stake, the will of the people is irrelevant.
