Fingers crossed Cameron now has the cojones to stamp on the more extreme elements of his party and make decisions in the best interests of the country rather than simply to keep the backbenchers happy...lest he make the mistakes of John Major and wind up with various knives in the back....One area where Thatcher got it right...keep the mice in line or they start squeaking amongst themselves.....
He is party leader so needs to show leadership and put his foot down - my way or the highway, as up till now he has let the backbenchers call the tune, even when the tune has been off key....
Fair enough have a referendum on europe...but stamp on the half truths etc and show just how much trade goes both ways, the benefits we get (free movement, ability to work in any EU nation without a visa, preferential access to markets, common standards which then cut down the cost of stuff (bigger market, lower unit cost) along with the truth on what it costs compared to what money it brings in, and how much we would gain or lose financially (I'm betting on a loss). Plus when the Americans reckon we are better off in Europe...that says something...
What I'd like to see from this government - movement to a federal UK, each part with its own parliament, sort of like Australia but not...
Which would then answer the West Lothian question, English issues dealt with only by English MPs, ditto for Scotland, Wales, NI. I think it would also remove a lot of ill feeling....each country raises and spends its own income but contributes a set amount per person to the "federal govt" to cover defence, passports etc etc) devolve the rest to each "state" - health, education, welfare, speed limits.
Though quite where an English Parliament would be, given they want to decant MPs from westminster for several years to do major repairwork is another question...
