'Battle for Britain'

Hollande said as he arrived. "I want Britain to stay in the EU. But I hope most of all that Europe can advance, can be stronger."
U.K. Independence Party leader Nigel Farage, who wants Britain to leave the EU, said the changes Cameron was seeking were trivial.

"It's not worth a row of beans, whatever he gets," Farage said.

Remember this today: whatever happens in these last-ditch EU negotiations, David Cameron has frivolously and selfishly taken his country to the very brink for nothing more than marginal political self-interest. He has gambled everything he thinks is in the national interest in exchange for worse than nothing. What he has done is unforgiveable, shameful and shameless.

The Ukip leader accused the Prime Minister earlier this week of being a chicken after the desperate PM swerved a meeting with MEPs.

He said: “The Prime Minister is chicken. I received my official documentation to say that I was one of several meeting the PM tomorrow morning [Tuesday] and he has now run away. Frankly I’m not surprised.

“Not only is the deal pitiful but he would not want me exposing the fact that even if he wins the referendum, the European Parliament will veto it.”

British PM begging for EU concessions ‘humbling and humiliating’ – UKIP’s Farage
“What you got today is a British Prime Minister looking likely like the Charles Dickens figure of Oliver Twist, you know walking up and saying, please sir, can I please have some more concessions. I find it pretty humbling and humiliating that a British Prime Minister has to do that,”

We are members of a Facebook forum for British expats living in Spain. It’s quite a spectacle to see how many Brits are willing to sell their country out in order to avoid losing their health care reciprocity.
