I would have thought the party with the largest majority in Parliment would be in the best position to get us a referendum.

Quite right, Dave, however it ill becomes a paid-up Tory to come on here and start mouthing off about Labour not giving us a referendum. Cameron certainly hasn't got the bottle to do it!

Re: Northern Parliament

the problem is they gave too much fiscal and economic power and created a monster.no way should they have let countries like greece especailly when the likes of portugal and spain were already struggling.i think we could be thinking of military coups in the likes of greece thats how serious its getting. last spring was the arrab spring,this summer could be what happened in the sixties riots in paris madrid etc with the likes of 20% unemployment rates in spain.like i said we aint seen nothing yet

Agreed. Very much in favour of an EU referendum no matter who's in office. Individual MPs, no matter which party, need to come out in favour of having one. Maybe Graham will come round to it? He could still vote with his conscience and stay cuddled up to the European Union if we did have a referendum.

Cameron and his cronies will only do what is good for him and the rest of his millionaire pals, as usual.He and his like don't give a monkeys chuff for the likes of us plebs.We may get a referendum when it means no longer matters, just to appease the masses.

I'm not a paid up member of the Tory Party and think exactly the same way as you on Europe, I may add the former MP Ken Hargreaves is no longer a member either.
