Tory Promise Or Just Real Retoric?

Shadow foreign secretary William Hague has said there will be no going back on plans to withdraw Tory MEPs from the European People's Party.

Maybe the Tories are trying to divide the similarities between New Labour and themselves?

He was speaking after talks in Brussels aimed at forming a new Eurosceptic group in the European Parliament.

Mr Hague also lunched with Tory MEPs, some of whom have said they will risk de-selection rather than quit the EPP.

Now I don't doubt that what Hague is saying is true, I thought that Hague was probably one of the 'sincere' leaders the Tories have had to date. The new leader seems somewhat a Blair Clone and even admits he won't change on most of Blair's policies should he ever get in to power (God Forbid)
