Mrs Clegg blasts PM’s ‘Mickey Mouse’ deal

-

NICK Clegg’s wife, Miriam Durantez Gonzalez, has attacked David Cameron’s ‘Mickey Mouse EU negotiatio­n’ in an extraordin­ary swipe.

The Remain campaigner said the PM’s offer to the electorate did not amount to ‘proper’ reform.

Her remarks were seized on by Brexiteers as a sign that the Remain campaign had ‘split’. The wife of the former Deputy Prime Minister told Fortune’s Most Powerful Women event: ‘The European Union is crying for reform. Proper reform, not that Mickey Mouse negotiatio­n that the Prime Minister did.’ She accused Mr Cameron and the country of ‘sleepwalki­ng towards disaster’.

Former Welsh Secretary David Jones said: ‘Oh dear, even EU fanatic Nick Clegg’s wife slams David Cameron’s EU renegotiat­ion.’
