Our tolerance is part of what makes Britain Britain. So conform to it, or don't come here. - Tony Blair

It has been an unrelenting, but, I have to accept, at least partly successful campaign to persuade Britain that Europe is a conspiracy aimed at us, rather than a partnership designed for us and others to pursue our national interest properly in a modern, interdependent world. It is right to confront this campaign head on. Provided that the treaty embodies the essential British positions, we shall agree to it as a Government. Once agreed – either at the June Council, which is our preference, or subsequently – Parliament should debate it in detail and decide upon it. Then, let the people have the final say.

We've already discovered, just so far, the remains of 400,000 people in mass graves.

Politics may be the art of the possible, but at least in life, give the impossible a go.
