London: Britain's David Cameron will address parliament on Monday over his failure to stop Jean-Claude Juncker becoming the next president of the European Commission, insisting he will work with him to secure a "fair deal" with the EU.
The prime minister will face criticism from the opposition Labour party during the session in the House of Commons from 1430 (1330 GMT) although eurosceptics in his centre-right Conservative party broadly support his stance.
Ahead of his Commons appearance, Cameron wrote in the Daily Telegraph that he hoped to work with Juncker to gain a "fair deal" for Britain in Europe.
"I do not oppose further integration within the eurozone: I think it is inevitable. Eurozone members must make those decisions.
Cameron forced an unprecedented vote on Juncker's nomination at a European summit in Brussels on Friday.
Cameron called Juncker on Sunday to congratulate him on the job.
He denied in the Telegraph piece that the vote had dealt a "fatal blow" to his strategy of renegotiating Britain's position in Europe before then.
"But it is not in our nature as a country to give up. That is not what we do."
