The Sun comes back to the EU referendum

The Sun has come back to the EU constitutional treaty in a short leader -

Treaty trap

EVIDENCE mounts that Gordon Brown faces a backlash from core supporters if he refuses a referendum on the EU treaty.

According to a poll, a quarter of Labour voters won’t vote for him if denied a national vote.

If Brown thinks he can bulldoze opposition to the treaty he misjudges the national mood — and the mood of many in his own party.


That's The Sun's leader. What's particularly interesting is that they hang it on a non story.

Now, call me hopeful.

But The Sun would not keep pushing for a referendum on the EU constitutional treaty if its owner did not agree.

Good for The Sun.

I hope Rupert Murdoch is for a referendum but I doubt he is. He is only loyal to himself and with an EU super state he probably could sell more papers.
