Common Sense 4 Britain
Delegates at the TUC conference earlier this week have demanded the Prime Minister give the British people a say over EU membership in a national vote. This is a major embarrassment for Labour, as the TUC now looks set to form an alliance with the Tory party due to Labours constant refusal of a National Referendum.
Bob Crowe, general secretary of one of the unions at the TUC, the RMT, said: "If it is good enough for the Irish to have a vote in the referendum,it should be good enough for British workers.
The vote came as it was discovered that Britain has been involved in emergency talks in Brussels to ensure that European judges are not able to challenge our Foreign policy as EU officials have "watered down" a key Blair "Red Line", removing Britain's right to control our own Foreign Policy. David Cameron, Tory leader, has promised to force a vote in the House Of Commons when MP's return from the Summer recess. Cameron called on opposition MP's to back the motion calling the treaty "the wrong constitution for Europe" CommentsWant to comment on this blog entry?
