BRITISH PRIME MINISTER David Cameron has announced 23 June as the date that the UK will decide whether or not to stay in the EU.
Speaking at Downing Street, he said that following negotiations he will recommend that the country stays in the EU.
This follows extensive talks with Brussels over the past number of days over a range of conditions put forward by the UK.
The majority of the PMs cabinet agreed to back the new agreement with Brussels that will afford the UK special status.
He went on to say:
I want to speak directly to the British people to explain why. We are approaching one of the biggest decisions this country will face in our lifetimes. Whether to remain in a reformed European Union or to leave. The choice goes to the heart of the kind of country we want to be and the future we want for our children.
The reform deal agreed between the UK and Brussels – secured overnight – will include a freeze on in-work benefits being paid out to EU citizens working in the UK as well as an opt-out for the UK to the ‘ever closer union’ clause in the EU’s treaty.

Just watching some US coverage of his visit. Whatever your views on the church FOX are nothing short of a disgrace on their commentary and comments…mocking him etc. They’re parents probably voted against Kennedy because he was Catholic.
My favourite quote was from Jeb Bush saying that the Pope shouldn’t comment on climate change because he’s not a scientist…… I’m pretty sure his family all world renowned scientists…. Not!!!
FOX must have said he hates capitalism three times in a minute. A priest they had on air said no he hates rich greedy people to which fox just cut him off.
I really try not to watch FOX news.It actually hurts to listen to such blatant and deliberate ignorance and normally I’d be all for a bit of Pope bashing.
Jamsey, I noticed that too. Jen Bush seems determined to put his foot in his own mouth.
Fox News and the Conservative party are now more backward than the Catholic Church. That takes some doing.
Jamsey, here’s everything you need to know about the Bush brothers in 5 words…
The smart ones called Jeb
You watch the Fox KKK Network…
Be great craic having a few beers with the Pope belting out “the green fields of France”,apparently he can do the chorus of “back home in Derry” too.
If it’s as good as some of the other Belgian beers he’ll be on his knees before he knows it! :-)
He probably prefers Bishops Finger
