"Mr President, in the Tusk letter there are some useful things, some trivial things, and some things we do not particularly like. But the referendum is not a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to Cameron’s deal, but the much bigger question of whether the UK should leave or remain in the EU.
I believe, and my party believes, that remaining in the EU is in the best interest of Britain’s economy and security: it is good for jobs, workplace rights and the environment. We have to face our future challenges not through isolation but through cooperation. The alternative, which the Eurosceptics pedal, is for the UK to walk away, have no say but still have to pay. To the Scottish nationalists: this is not about when the referendum will be, but about the future of Scotland, being part of the EU through the UK, and the benefits we gain for jobs and working people in Scotland.
I want the UK to remain part of the EU family for our long-term future as a country and our long-term prosperity as a nation."@en1
