Cameron’s plans for EU reform
British Prime Minister David Cameron is to meet fellow European Union leaders at a summit in Brussels to present key requirements ahead of an in-out referendum on EU membership
SUPERSTATE
Explicit pledge by Brussels
to keep Britain out of any moves towards
European superstate and exempt it from EU’s
fundamental principle of “ever-closer union”
THE EURO
Explicit statement
that euro is not official currency of EU,
making clear that Europe is
“multi-currency union”
BUREAUCRACY
“Red card” system to bring power back
from Brussels to Britain to stop unwanted directives being
handed down and to scrap existing EU laws
REFORM
New structure for EU itself.
London wants 28-nation bloc reorganized
to prevent nine non-eurozone countries being
dominated by 19 member states, with particular
protections guaranteed for City of London
