Internal Labour pressure for an EU referendum grows

Today’s Daily Telegraph reports that as many as 120 Labour MPs want a referendum on the new EU treaty. Ian Davidson, the MP who is at the forefront of efforts to get Labour to honour its manifesto promise, has written to Gordon Brown demanding 12 fundamental changes to the treaty if there is not to be a vote. Intriguingly, the Telegraph suggests that there are cabinet ministers privately backing the call for a referendum.
