WHAT is wrong with the Labour Party, they are now backing the ‘in/out’ referendum!

This was one issue that use to distance them from the Tories.

They too have put Britain into a complete muddle. Not simply as to whether we will remain members of the European Union – which we helped to create – but undoing the United Kingdom. As Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland want us to stay within the EU, it is just England being difficult.

And yet it is England who has the Channel Tunnel and major airports, ports, most institutions, manufacturers and investors.

Worse of all the public wrote off the Liberal Democrats, who thought that if Britain were offered treaties which were not acceptable they would ask the British public whether they wanted to proceed or not. Or leave.

Who are the losers? Well, you and I.

Remember, UKIP have only one MP, at the time of sending this email.

If you do not wish to be associated to a political party you could join the European Movement, as that is open to anyone. And they will be campaigning to stay in the European Union.

In the meantime, I ask MP’s to consider defecting to the Liberal Democrats, if they are supporters of the European Union, and our continued membership.

As members of the EU, we can and have always been able to, negotiate terms of agreement. We are the third largest member. We fought two major wars to seek peace and co-operation. We won’t get that by leaving.

Be British, and stand up for our rights, not run away.

In the meantime, this indecision will create another recession, which means further job losses.
