Lisbon Treaty Referendum Debate

BBC Radio 4, World at Night.

Recently, BBC radio 4 has a huge debate on EU reform treaty referenudum in UK, the fundamental argument is that Primary Minister Gordon brown had promised to hold the referendum about EU reform treaty.

However, since the new treaty is very similar as the previous EU Constitutional Treaty, which was refused by France and Netherland in France,2005.

So the government thinks that there is no need to hold the referendum again, because it does not interfere Britain's soverignty.

Opposition leader David Cameron argued "as soon as we have an election, the sooner we can have a referendum."

He continuously argued that the government cannot always do whatever is suggested in Brussels
