Abstract

The UK coalition government’s recent policy towards Europe has had the effect of driving the country away from the EU – and potentially out of it altogether, writes Andrew Duff MEP . He argues that while the UK is pushing itself away, the EU is now preaching, if not practicing, enhanced cooperation. But this is no longer enough to tackle the crisis; a federal economic government for the EU, with greater powers for the European Central Bank and the creation of the post of EU Treasury Secretary is now needed.
