A British cabinet member from Prime Minister David Cameron's junior coalition allies dismissed his decision to veto an EU treaty change as a political move that bought a popularity boost at home but left Europe's problems unsolved, Reuters reported. Cameron's veto of an EU deal to help address the debt crisis in the euro zone won him a hero's welcome at home with his broadly eurosceptic Conservative Party but opened a rift with his junior coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats. "It was largely political," Lib Dem Business Secretary Vince Cable said of Cameron's stance. "Certainly the prime minister has got a short term boost from it. But it doesn't actually deal with the big long term problems in Europe," Cable told BBC TV on Sunday. -- SPA
