They want to derail peace because they want to plunge Northern Ireland back into armed conflict.

In my experience of these things, parties which shout about dirty tricks and the like tend to do so because they fear a direct hit in some vulnerable part of their political anatomy.

Europe has to address people's needs directly and reflect their priorities, not our own preoccupations.

I certainly believe that we gain through open trade and liberalisation.

Essentially we need a new social consensus for economic reform as New Labour has achieved in Britain.

I do not share the half-in, half-out attitude to the EU of some in Britain. Britain's place is in Europe.

Firstly, people take for granted that the E.U. has created the biggest economic space in the world.
