They will go in whatever direction their focus groups of undecided voters for marginal seats will steer them. Parties have no firm grip on their policies or direction now.

Labour have no issue either way with the EU. It is the extremists in the Tory party and UKIP who want out. Though to exit would be like cutting our nose off to spite our face. So much of our trade is through the EU, and would business cope being outside. They would still have to comply with EU regs if they wanted to trade within the EU but would have absolutely no say on it.

Euroscepticism is alive and well in the Labour party, it's not as pronounced as it was in the 70s and 80s but it's still there.

It may be there but it is not the issue that it is for the Tories.

I think the Eurozone crisis and Germany's solution of ever tighter rules is stoking the fires of Euroscepticism in all of the political parties. True, it doesn't show in some, but even in the pro Europe parties people will be thinking twice about some thinks. I'm sure noone would be thinking about joining the Euro currency after all this.

It's easy for Milliband to be 'hard headed', after all his head has an unusually large amount of bone in it.

I always got the feeling that if he did anything “hard headed”, he may injure himself.
