During
last week´s EU summit in Brussels, the UK Prime Minister showed a more positive
approach towards the European institutions, particularly the EU Commission. For
those who have seen his past attitudes, he was a different man. The speculation
regarding his change of mind is wild and many reasons have been mentioned in
the last couple of days. I have no sure answer. But I suspect he has been
listening to the key business representatives in London and throughout the UK.
For them, a referendum on Europe, as promised by David Cameron, would be a
serious mistake. It would give too much space to the inward, nationalistic
politicians and could result in a No vote. The big British companies do not
want that to happen.
