The Liberal Dim Party conference is the natural place for Barroso to be - after all, the Liberal Dims are the political wing of the EU in the UK.

This is useful ammunition (if it is correct that Barroso will address the Liberal Dim conference) for the eurosceptic and anti-EU movements to use against the Liberal Dims in the future.

The general rule is that no EU Commissioner get involved in party politics. This rule would be breached if Barroso does turn up at the Liberal Dim conference. Delors, a previous EU Commission President and keen supporter of the EU Superstate now under construction attended the Labour conference (at the invitation of Kinnock and made a speech clearly designed to annoy Lady Thatcher (who was Prime Minister at the time).
