Conservative on conservative ought to be a balanced view, right? Or should the be correct?
Indeed, so true. We're certainly not in this together.
"Britain is fighting for its future in Europe more vigorously than it has in a long time. No one doubts that the tectonic plates are shifting in the Old World. But where are they going? The Continent, from which Britain always tried to keep its distance, is unmistakably heading toward a future of more integration, right in front of Albion's front door. The $64,000 question is being posed again: What do you think of the Germans?"
"Kauder's intervention has given Cameron unexpected relief ahead of his meeting with Merkel. Now he can turn the tables on Berlin. It's a shame, because the Briton is playing a strange game. 'We skeptics have a vital point,' he said during a speech in the City of London this week which was clearly aimed at the euroskeptics in his Tory party. 'We should look skeptically at grand plans and utopian visions.' But Cameron himself is chasing after grand plans and utopian visions. He is constantly talking of 'repatriating' powers back to the United Kingdom from Brussels. Does he have nothing else to say about the future of Europe than the constant mantra of a Little Englander? Does he not know about the new treaty negotiations that would be necessary in such a case -- at a time when Europe has bigger things to worry about than the concerns of British euroskeptics?"
"A deep crack is running through Europe. ... This is neither the time for Germany as the 'teacher of Europe' nor for Britain as small-minded populists. We have to tackle the crisis together -- or we will fall together as a result."
