Partially, yes. As always the truth is a little more nuanced, and as Europe is such a charged issue in British politics it's phenomenally difficult to get anything like a balanced commentary on what went on and what the consequences might be.
One thing I did notice, this morning, was how effortlessly *David* Milliband set up a convincing line of opposition to David Cameron's summit performance (likening the situation to Anthony Eden's 'failure' to take us into Europe in 1955). That one line has had more resonance than any of the lightweight jaw-flapping his brother has managed to produce at any point in the last three days.

... that same Ed Milliband is currently on his feet castigating the Tories for not paying attention to Michael Heseltine.
... or the Deputy PM, who is a member of a different political party whose European policy everybody has always known is pretty much the polar opposite of the Tories'.
