Not that vetos ever get used...
Yup, think all member states can veto certain things - Cameron last used ours back in 2011 for some financial markets regulation for the Eurozone crisis but which would have impacted us. As you say it's rare that anyone ever uses the veto, I couldn't say why, maybe it makes those lavish dinners in Berlaymont a bit awkward later.

The EU is moving toward Qualified Majority Voting i.e. taking away the power of veto from member states. This will 100% happen it's just a question of when. It's possible that someone could veto these changes - the UK if we are still in the EU, but no-one will.

A Liberal Democrat candidate arguing that poor people affected by the austerity her party voted for should zip off to Zurich for chalet season.

Lib Dems lost all their student voters years ago when the party couldn't honour the abolition of student tuition fees when they formed a coalition with the Conservatives. Actually the lib dems lost a chunk of their seats as well in the following election and they haven't really recovered.

Stupid shit like this and wanting migration from other countries uncapped is why they're doomed. Their traditional pensioner voters sadly, have mostly passed away. In my opinion the next batch of retirees is more likely to vote for the Brexit Party than Conservatives, Labour or this lot [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Brexit Party stands by candidate in 'Nazi vampire' band.

Stuka Squadron perform in black leather coats and military-style hats, billed as “vampire warriors who have fought through the ages on innumerable battlefields.” Though its outfits were inspired by German Luftwaffe pilots, the band has denied having any political message. “To suggest that he is in any way associated with that which people are trying to associate him with is just silly,” a Brexit Party spokesman said.

They may scream a little and say “oh my water is bad” but they end up not really doing much. So it doesn’t really matter.
