Which direction is losing for him? Neither main party leader seems to have a strong commitment either way. |

I think it’s the potential fall out afterwards. Will losing the referendum, for example, cause a second go at Scottish independence? We know that Scotland is very pro EU, and will very likely not want to leave - this could potentially cause the break up of the UK. Will winning cause a massive fracture in the Conservative party, with the EuroSceptics creating a massive fuss that Cameron failed to support their views? I can’t see Cameron’s position being that stable in either situation, really. He’ll have to reign in his party a lot whatever the result, I think. |

Interesting piece in the Guardian on EU negotiations: It’s time for Europe to turn the tables on bullying Britain. Does make the point about courting a much more pro-EU Scotland and putting the frighteners on the City and industry that's only really in the UK because it's part of the EU. Does the EU need major reform? Yes, absolutely. Is the UK pushing for that actual reform? Is it heck. |

I hope not. When he won the election with a really [LIFTED] margin I made a bet that he wouldn't last a year. Then Labour went and took the pressure off him by electing a half-pound bag of vegan sherbert for their new overlord ![]() |

So presumably a pro-EU civil servant can help their minister, and the SPADs can just carry on being shifty and getting paid by the taxpayer as usual? |
