Lisbon Treaty
I cannot believe the hoohah in the UK , over the fact that the Tories cannot deliver on the referendum promised. Are the Tories about to self-destruct before the election next year , which they are expected to win??
FACT: Britain is a member of the EU
FACT: The elected government , albeit not the elected Prime Minister had the mandate of the people to negotiate this treaty
There is the question surrounding the Labour failure to let the UK have a referendum BEFORE this treaty was negotaited. That failure sums up the deceitful lies and mistruths callously spread by Labour just to hang on to power.
William Hague spoke a lot of sense last night on NEWSNIGHT and it is clear , once the media stop sensationalising everything, that the UK is not handing all its power to Brussels.
Most EU countries will not agree to that, Spain in particular. However, it makes perfect sense to me that for the EU, now a large geographical area, needs to have a co-ordinated strategy for trading with the other main blocs, China and the USA.
Anyone, who thinks the UK could survive outside the EU club, is totally misguided.
