British Democracy Forum - View Single Post - Leader of europhile Liberal 'Dems' again calls for EU vote

This is a non argument by the ghastly Europhile Lib Dems, they feel if people say yes we will stay in then effectively there should be no more argument on any other treaty we should just sign up to everything. Do they not understand that the whole argument since we went in has centered arround our realtionship within the Eu and that relatioship will always be a problamatic one.

Britians whole ecnomic outlook is diffrent to the rest of the EU, that lies at the heart of the problems surrounding our membership.

Do the Lib Dems really think if they could persuade people to stay in that all such future discussions would cease?

The answer is they dont, this is a cynical con to deflect attnetion away from the fact they too like Labour have ran away from giving the people a say on this treaty and I hope the electorate give them a huge kick in the ballet box for it!
