David Cameron’s EU Demands
David Cameron has delivered a speech in which he set out the four targets of his renegotiation of Britain’s relationship with the European Union:
- Restricting access to in-work benefits until British and European citizens have worked for four years.
- Protection for Britain and other countries outside the eurozone to ensure that they cannot have rules for the single market imposed by eurozone countries.
- To “write competitiveness into the DNA of the whole European Union”.
- Exempting Britain from the EU’s founding principle to forge an ever closer union of the peoples of Europe and to instead bolster the role of national parliaments.
