My response to the speech by President of the European Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso today: “Labour believes that Europe can and must be made to work better for Britain, but we understand that the right road for Britain is change in Europe, not exit from Europe. “Just a few months ago, Conservative ministers were praising President Barroso’s credibility when he spoke about Scotland and the EU, yet today they are trying to dismiss him because he has exposed that David Cameron’s approach to Europe is weakening, not strengthening Britain’s hand in Brussels. “Instead of trying to use Europe simply as a tool of party management, David Cameron should focus on using Britain’s leverage as a tool for securing real change in Europe. Europe needs reform, but David Cameron’s damaging approach is now making it harder, not easier, for Britain to secure the change we need.” press.labour.org.uk/post/100496564754/the-right-road-for-britain-is-change-in-europe-not
