PM Cameron and the EU Vote - EU Vote 2016


Lets Get Real:

I would think if David Cameron is on the losing side of the EU Referendum this year that he would have to go, for a PM to lose on such a major policy would undermine his authority as PM.  Also the PM has stated that he is not running in 2020, thus the Conservative Party will need a new leader before 2020, and to be fair a new leader would have to have some time to bed in, so if its out for UK, then one can argue that it will be out for David Cameron.   Of course the runners and riders are getting ready, a policy failure like the EU would push Cameron out bit early, that is the nature of the political beast, it does support losers. 

The UK and the EU - Referendum Vote


Lets Get Real:

This is blog has not made its mind up about the referendum vote, lets see what kind of deal the PM brings back in February, either leaving or staying have their good and bad points, if the UK leaves we will be alone, therefore we will not have to follow EU policy on most things, that is good, but what happens if something goes wrong the economy or Jeremy Corby is elected in 2020, we are stuck in the UK.  Lets see the details of the deal first, then this blog will have an answer to the Euro question. One does hope that PM Cameron gets  a good enough deal, the UK voter are not great fans of the EU, it would not take much for the UK voter to vote to leave, one should never think one totally understands the voter, that was the mistake the pollsters  made with the 2015 election.
