i-thorts' i-Politics: PM pledges in/out referendum on EU

David Cameron has said the British people must "have their say" on Europe as he pledged an in/out referendum if the Conservatives win the election.

The prime minister said he wanted to renegotiate the UK's relationship with the EU and then give people the "simple choice" between staying in under those new terms, or leaving the EU ... The news was welcomed by Eurosceptics who have long campaigned for a vote.

About time.

I'd like to believe that the Tories would like to give the people of Britain a choice. But I do wonder, though, if this is just a cheek trick to get voters on side.

At the beginning of January, Clegg declared to return to Lib Dem roots... Now we have Cameron trying to woo votes via a referendum on Europe.Only time will tell just how commuted they are to this idea!!
