David Cameron will try to move his renegotiation of Britain’s membership of the European Union on to its next phase, still without explicitly stating what he wants.

The prime minister traveled to Brussels on Thursday for a second round of meetings with European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker and Parliament President Martin Schulz, followed by a full summit of EU leaders, in which the renegotiation is also scheduled to be raised.

“It’s going to take time, and it’s going to take patience,” Cameron’s spokeswoman, Helen Bower, told reporters in London on Wednesday. “The expectation and our intention is that there will be a substantive discussion at the European Council in December.”
