you must not use 2 core to feed the lights. your lights need the earth as it will have exposed conductive parts ( the casing is an exposed conductive part as it is part of the installation which is not normally live but can become live under fault conditions)

A breaker (MCB )board won't give any further protection than a Board fitted with a fuse for fault protection. (indirect contact as was).
an RCD protected circuit "might" operate under fault conditions but i wouldn't want to chance it . wise decision in getting 3core cable .

Been a spark for 24 years and couldn't have said it any better than this :-)
