I'm going to ask the question again. Can anyone point me towards the strategy and process for achieving a reformed EU? I've not had a single response each time I've asked about this - both on FTN and in other meetings. It's a pretty crucial question for me. No point in selling me 'Another Europe Is ...

The Hinsliff piece really does have some of the best BTL I've seen in a while. Most people are saying the same thing in different ways, which is basically that it's not a matter of left right bias, or Labour Tory bias, it's a class thing and a Westminster thing. The establishment is scared by Corby...

Corbyn’s speech flushed out IoD which immediately called on Britons to approve TTIP they have not seen. Let’s see Cameron match the pledge?

Cameron won't though, will he? Under his PMship the UK has been one of the strongest in favour of TTIP.
