TORY REFORM GROUP: IT'S THE ECONOMY, STUPID
24/10/2011
Like most of the British people, the Tory Reform Group has watched the weekend's developments on Europe with a mixture of astonishment and dismay.
With unemployment, inflation and low growth figures threatening the lives and jobs of people up and down the country, this moment of dire financial crisis is not the time to re-open a debate on Britain's membership of the European Union.
All of us agree that the EU needs reform but whatever the strongly held view of some, this is simply the wrong time for such a debate.
David Cameron has moved the Conservative Party into the centre ground of British politics - he has made us electable again. This debate is self-indulgent and wrong.
The Conservative Party has historically put the national interest above Party interest. It did so to form the Coalition. It must do so again. It is time to remember that we are a Party of Government now and must behave like it.
