When they included the pledge to hold a referendum in their last manifesto it was nothing more than a cynical election ploy, which they never intended to honour. Their actions are basically anti-democratic and they treat the British electorate with complete contempt. Brown's red lines and this week's EU summit are all a charade - the "deal" has been done already. Once more, without asking the views of the electorate, more of our sovereignty is being surrendered to a body over which the British people have no democratic influence or control. It is outrageous that MPs are prepared to give away these powers which they temporarily hold on our behalf without first obtaining the agreement of the electorate.
