Standing firm on Europe

Article Abstract:

Major's policy on a single European currency is correct. It would enable Britain to influence European Union (EU) policy and even lead the EU at times. Despite the correctness of his position, Major's inability to control his party is likely to lose him re-election on May 1, 1997.
