In his long-awaited speech on Europe, British PM David Cameron pledged to organise a referendum on UK membership of the EU if he’s re-elected in 2015. This referendum would be held before the end of 2017 and after a new deal is agreed between the UK and its EU partners.
This speech “unites Tories, delights business and even gets Germany on side”, writes the eurosceptic daily, referring to the fact that German Chancellor Angela Merkel said she was “prepared to talk about British wishes”.
