| Labour |
Labour
will campaign for a 'Yes' vote in the referendum
for a European Constitution. Labour argues that Britain should be at the
heart of Europe and in the heart of the decision-making process. They
believe that a constitution will help the EU
to function better. Labour will maintain its support, in principal, for
the Euro but will continue with its current approach - to join when the
time is right. |
| Conservatives |
The
Conservatives would hold a referendum for the European Constitution in
the autumn of 2005 and campaign for a 'No' vote. The Conservatives would
work to make the EU more flexible in the way it works so that member
states can be selective in aspects of legislation they feel are either
necessary or unnecessary for their own particular circumstances. The
Conservatives are opposed to joining the Euro. The
party wants a reform of the Common Agricultural Policy. |
| Liberal
Democrats |
The
Liberal Democrats would campaign to join the European Constitution as
they believe that it actually limits what the EU can do. The party
wishes to keep Britain's current rights of veto over defence and tax.
The party would support joining the Euro when the economic climate is
right. The party wants an urgent reform of the Common Agricultural
Policy. |
