Putting the revolting Tories into context
After all the excitement of Monday's Tory revolt on Europe it takes Nick Clegg to put the views of the Euro sceptics into some context. According to today's Telegraph the Deputy Prime Minister scorned the demands of the Conservative backbenches:
“Eurosceptics need to be quite careful for what they wish for, because if they succeed – and they won’t succeed, as long as I’m in government – to push this country towards the exit sign, let’s be clear: that [what] will be damaged is British families, British businesses, British jobs.”
Personally, I am proud that the Liberal Democrats remain such a powerful obstacle to the Tory party wrecking the British economy in this way.
