  I think you will find that even the Conservatives BarryW are slipping away from this referendum idea the closer they get to power. I know saying this to you about the Conservatives is like teaching my grandmother to suck eggs. There is little doubt here in the UK that people would vote NO in a referendum on the treaty but what a shambles that would bring. Even some of your fellow Conservatives last week were saying...
  ....Look we're already in, lets make it work as withdrawal is not an option.
  
  Being in opposition is a deliciously soft option, you can be against that, complain about this, call for a resignation here, condem such an initiative over there...but once one gets ones hands on the reins of power a whole new dose of rigidity hits the thinking.
