CAMERON FINALLY MAKES A GOOD, CONSERVATIVE MOVE: DEMANDS REFERENDUM ON LISBON TREATY

TELEGRAPH: David Cameron demands referendum on new EU constitution from Gordon Brown

Launching the Conservatives campaign for the forthcoming European Parliament elections, the Conservative leader called on the Prime Minister to abandon his opposition to a referendum. The issue is expected to be crucial in the run-up to polling day on June 4.

Labour's 2005 general election manifesto promised that the Government would hold a referendum.

However, Mr Brown has ratified the renegotiated constitution - known as the Lisbon Treaty - without a public vote. The Prime Minister claims that the Treaty is not a revised version of the constitution despite it being largely identical.

Mr Cameron said yesterday: "Where you stand on the referendum says a lot about your politics. It says a lot about how much you value trust between the government and the governed. I believe that if you make a promise in your manifesto, and the country votes on that manifesto, then you are honour-bound to keep that promise.

"Gordon Brown's flip-flopped on this before. First he was against the Constitution, then he was for it; one day he promised a referendum, the next he backtracked. While he has chopped and changed, our position has remained exactly the same. We are the only major party to have consistently said that it is up to the British people to decide on our future in Europe."

BRAVO!

NOW... IF WE COULD ONLY GET HIM TO DEFEND BRITAIN FROM ISLAMIZATION & DHIMMITUDE...
