I have my thoughts on the E.U. issue and I respect DC for at least not rolling over to the EU elite. He has time and again said he beleives we are better in than out of the EU but also says that there are many failings that need to be addressed. What is wrong with that? IT'S TRUE.
He has tried to make it clear that it's not as simple as 'In or Out' until avenues of possible change to our membership have been debated. The british people must have a firm grasp of the situaton and they don't at the moment know if, what and when any change to our membership may, or may not, take place. The status quo could remain, probably will, but at least he is giving it a shot.
I think we forget that there are other countries who are more accepting of his view but are rarely spoken of. Netherlands, Sweden are examples. Today I have seen it reported that thousands have been signing in Germany to stop Germany granting Brussells more financial powers. Things maybe on the move in other countries too and maybe DC is not so isolated as the british press and media would have us believe.
It is certainly an interesting situation and one I think will cause a lot of trouble in the near future given that Labour and Lib Dems are so intent on staying in the E.U. at any cost and the rise of in popularity of UKIP. It doesn't make me happy to say that.
