Why Europe should be an issue in your campaigning!

May 5, 2010 9:43 AM

Previously Tory MEP, Edward McMillan-Scott, now a Liberal Democrat, writes in The Guardian of how David Cameron's controversial European alliance is set to unravel even further. He also talks of how William Hague had distanced himself from Cameron's desire to associate with extremists including anti-Semitics, and homophobics. Edward says that, "Most people, including many Tories in touch with me, think that Cameron's strategy is simply bad for Britain."

Meanwhile the EUObserver reports on how the European Parliament is afraid that the UK might end up with a Tory government, saying that Brussels fears that the eurosceptic Tories, should they be elected into power later this week, will obstruct the setting up of the new External Action Service (EAS).
