Brussels will have right to reject benefit curbs

Britain’s right to limit benefits for European Union migrants will be at the mercy of MEPs who can veto the move under watered-down reforms secured by David Cameron yesterday.

The prime minister won the chance to implement an “emergency brake” on in-work benefits if Britain votes this year to remain in the EU.

However, a safeguard mechanism means that the European parliament would have a veto.
