Over the mext five years we are going to get a good view of that part of the conservative party they like to keep hidden.

Almost looking forward to it :-)

honest.

Regarding the EU - I need to hear both sides of the argument although I think, on balance, we should probably stay.

What concerns me is that there are rather a lot of UKIP voters that will vote to leave regardless of the arguments for and against.

Do we know when the in/out referendum will take place? This year?

They cam effectively split the conservstives as a government and a party. Could even lead to a no confidence vote.

The result will be to stay in but it may well be pretty tight. It is what happens during the campaign that will damage the conservatives.

Huge opportuniity.

Either way, it would be refreshing to have a proper debate about Europe, rather than just demonising everyone who has their doubts about it.

once and for all. The tories will survive it. Oddly enough, the sooner he calls the referendum, the less damage it will do to the party.

[Peter]

Days.

I have no idea....

[Peter]

Then again, small majority, arsehole back bench..... Tricky call.

[Berni]

short time given the magnitude of the issue. As did the AV referendum. There will be enormous pressure to do it quickly. Summer 2016 for me.
