It's not exactly new ground for Dave and Giddeon though is it?
Telling porkies about the economy and expecting the financially illiterate to lap it up I mean.
They've been at it since the last Election.

It hasn't been halved, it hasn't even been cut. Balls has got some front gloating about it though.

Osborne looks anything but convincing as he tells us all what a great result he has got. For once, and I hate to say it, but I agree with Balls - smoke and mirrors.

No "good deal" here. Just delayed. Until after 2015 election so Cam and Gideon can pray they hold on.
I can see UKIP getting 25% of the popular vote next year. Few MPs, but it will cause mayhem.

Oh please give it a break. Cameron doesn't mean to reform anything. You know that deep down, we all know it. It's called political posturing so that you appear to be more credible to the voters.
Cameron's problem is he doesn't have any credibility left. He's run out with his constant reneging on his promises in the past.
Hence I can easily predict there will be no EU referendum if he wins in 2015 (which I predict he won't).

according to C4 and bbc Osbourne has done some fancy footwork and the deal is not a great victory
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-29956289
Eurosceptic Tory MEP Daniel Hannan suggested the deal achieved by the chancellor may not represent any reduction to the amount being demanded from the UK.
He said: "The EU sticks us with a bill. Ministers double it, apply the rebate, return to the original figure and claim victory. We're meant to cheer?
"Britain is worse off in absolute terms, but a straw man has been knocked down."

So, A8, will Cameron go before or after the election? And who do you think will replace him?

You wouldn't know credibility if it danced in your face.
immigration reform
financial reforms
legal reforms.
indeed the labour party say they want EU reform too.
Anyone thinking the current EU is perfect needs their head testing.

8games, after yet another credibility busting statement [ it seems that with politics as with football managers you are out of touch ]. What are the urgent reforms that Nigel........sorry Dave wants in order to placate his sceptical wing and also his weak kneed supporters?

Pulling out of the EU is lunacy. Controlling immigration from non -EU countries is a different thing all together.

Norway is not in the EU but as a trading entity with the EU it has to comply with the EU free movement of labour requirements. When we leave the EU if we want to stay a trading partner, at the Norwegion level, we will still have to accept many EU "constraints".

It's all political spin. Cameron knows it, we know it.
- EU hit the UK with a larger than they expect bill.
- Cameron stamps his foot in anger saying he will not pay the bill.
- Meetings take place and the bill is reduced.
- Cameron claims a small victory over the EU.
- Tory supporters say how good Cameron is.
Everyone is chums again.
All bullshit.
We need to get out of the corrupt EU.

'what surface can't answer is that no country has access to the common market without freedom of movement.'
Really? Tell that to NAFTA. And tell it to the dozens of countries who have been granted zero rate tariffs by the EU.
And you should tell David Cameron. Only he is telling all and sundry that he will renegotiate to make this so. Unless, of course, he is lying again.
