Cameron the Coward cocks up again

So, Cameron the Coward has dumped his promise of a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. Of course, his reasoning is rationally correct – a referendum after the next election would be too late to affect Lisbon. But politically this may be a disaster – by driving voters towards UKIP, Cameron the Coward may split the Tory vote and allow Labour another five years to completely bankrupt the country. A referendum would have given Cameron a much stronger mandate to resist the bureaucrats of Brussels. But with Cameron’s failure to take any real�stand on the hopeless Afghan war, the EU, MPs’ expenses and, in fact, anything at all, his chances of ever becoming PM are looking increasingly slim
