Heather Kidd Predicts Turmoil Amongst Tories After Irish EEC Vote
The Tories could be facing months of turmoil as they face major divisions over Europe after Ireland voted decisively in favour of the Lisbon treaty. Around two thirds voted Yes to the reform proposals and this means that the treaty is almost certainly going to become law. Many Tories want nothing to do with the EU and the vast majority of them want a referendum despite what their leader says but Heather said "There are many benefits of EU membership and they should be considered very seriously. Protecting British families from crime, the recession and climate change have major advantages if our country works with other EU countries."
