PM’s ‘not neutral’ EU stance causes Tory chaos

DAVID CAMERON cast the Tories into chaos over the EU referendum yesterday after a U-turn befitting TV political satire the The Thick of It.

Speaking at the start of a G7 summit in Bavaria on Sunday, the Prime Minister said the government “isn’t neutral” and would campaign for Britain to remain in the EU.

He added: “If you want to be part of the government you have to take the view that we are engaged in an exercise of renegotiation to have a referendum and that will lead to a successful outcome.”
