Miliband rules out EU referendum

Labour have effectively ruled out an EU referendum, saying there is an "overwhelming economic case" for being in the EU.

Ed Miliband said today that there would only be an in/out referendum on our EU membership if there was a significant transfer of power to the EU. As the Lisbon Treaty was an enabling act, it is unlikely that a new treaty will ever be needed for future power grabs so in Miliband's own words: a referendum under a Labour government is "unlikely".

In other words, it's no different to to Cameron's "cast-iron guarantee". It's a deceit on the people of the UK.

Well at least you can say that Labour are more internationalist thn the Tories. Norman Tebbit was vilified by the Left for saying get on your bike to find work to people in the North. Labours mass immigration betrayal and their leaders refusal to give the British a say on ending mass immigration by leaving the EU is forcing young people to leave the country to find work.
