Redwood comments spark Euro clash

Europe Minister Denis MacShane claims that the Tories are now on UKIP ground:

Mr Redwood has now crossed the Rubicon into UKIP territory. Conservative policy is now contemplating quitting the EU with the massive consequences that would have for trade, jobs, travel and Britain's standing in the world.

The consequences will indeed be massive: 1) Trade: We can have free trade with everyone 2) Jobs: Without the socialist stranglehold of EU legislation, the UK can produce more jobs than ever. 3) Travel: So they will ask us for visas now will they. Do you believe that. 4) Standing in the World: We can follow the national interest without worrying about what some Belgian non entity thinks.
