In my version of the English language, when one member of a club uses his veto, he blocks something from happening. Mr Cameron did not stop France, Germany and the other 15 members of the euro zone from going ahead with what they are proposing.

Awesome poster by Stanley Donwood for the Occupy movement.
“If a man has an apartment stacked to the ceiling with newspapers we call him crazy. If a woman has a trailer full of cats we call her nuts. But when people pathologically hoard so much cash that they impoverish the entire nation, we put them on the cover of Fortune magazine and pretend they are role models.”
