Evidencing the shift in policy in a eurosceptic direction since William
Hague became leader of his party the author says Hague must now seize the
opportunity to take the next logical step: to advocate renegotiation of our
continental relationship on the basis of free trade not political union (with
EU withdrawal an accepted option, as in 1975, in the event of failure).

The stark truth is that the Franco/German friendship has set its compass
for a federalist destination. If the British people want to prevent their
incorporation into a suprantional, superpower Europe then they will have to do
it themselves, by challenging the status quo of European Union membership.

Reviews of interesting literature from both sides of the Europe debate
|
|
|
On Europe, John Major blew it. As Neville Chamberlain is remembered as the
Prime Minister of Munich, so will John Major be remembered as the Prime
Minister of Maastricht. Major’s European policy was an unequivocal failure,
the legacy of which the Conservative party will wrestle with in Opposition for
perhaps too long.

The European Union has embarked on ambitious, but unwise, economic and
political experiments - The Single Market and Economic and Monetary Union.
'From Single Market to Single Currency' is the definitive text for
showing just how badly the EU has led Europe down the wrong economic path.

The origins of the Conservative Party's civil war over Europe are
analysed. And it becomes clear that Conservatives, in the next couple of
years, have to make some fundamental choices. It is no longer sufficient for a
Conservative leader simply to paint a picture of the type of Europe that
Britain would like to lead. This approach has been tested to destruction and
the Continentals are mightily unimpressed by it.
