Voters back Clegg over Cameron on Europe by 2:1

Nick Clegg has just finished a press briefing at which he published results of a poll commissioned from MORI, which shows that by a margin of 2:1 voters prefer the Liberal Democrat policy of having a referendum on Britain’s membership of the EU to David Cameron’s policy of only having a limited referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. Only 8% of people want a referendum on both.

Today the right-wing papers are in full cry about a referendum, claiming their view is representative of what the public wants. The Times leader says ‘Let the People Speak’ while The Sun puns its way to ‘EU must listen’.

Now the public have spoken about what sort of referendum they really want, will they listen…?
