This evening, at a meeting of its Executive Council, the Romford Conservative Association passed a motion, which backed Conservatives for Britain’s campaign for a fundamental change with our relationship with the EU, whilst also sharing its optimistic, global view of Britain’s future.
The full text of the motion is published below:
“That this Association:
Considers the UK’s present relationship with the EU of ever closer union to lack democratic accountability and consent;
Welcomes the Prime Minister’s commitment “to reform the EU and fundamentally change Britain’s relationship with it” and the subsequent Conservative manifesto commitments;
Takes an optimistic global view of the UK’s future;
Supports our Party’s policy to renegotiate our membership of the EU according to the commitment set out by the Prime Minister, followed by an in/out referendum;
Considers the minimum acceptable reform must be based on the democratic principle that the UK Parliament will decide which EU laws shall apply in the United Kingdom and so ending the supremacy of EU law.”
Proposed by Cllr. Osman Dervish (Chairman, Romford Conservative Association)
Seconded by Cllr. Joshua Chapman (Membership Deputy Chairman, Romford Conservative Association)
