It seems very easy for the struggling EU leaders (both elected and appointed) to use 'Cameron's demands that the British are treated specially' as a diversion from their own travails (both continentally and at home). And equally easy for the anti-Cameron press elements to jump on the bandwagon.

From what I have seen of his requirements, they were changes to policy that affected all members in such a way that the British weren't disadvantaged, rather than any requirement for special treatment. To me it is no less than any EU citizen from any country would expect of their elected representative.

It's like Ferguson blaming the referee after his players have put in a poor performance. Diversionary. The fact is that the bureaucrats once again failed to leave the summit which anything like a solution to the problem (or an acceptance that it is a problem that cannot be solved in it's current format). The markets this week have made that abundantly clear.

In truth did anyone expect anything but "more regulation" to be the EU response to any problem?
