**Conservative leader David Cameron is unveiling his new policy on Europe after he was forced to abandon a pledge for a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty.**Mr Cameron promised referendums on any future moves to “transfer further powers from Britain to the European Union” if the Tories win power.
He also proposed a sovereignty bill to guarantee UK lawmakers “final say”.
But he ruled out a “phoney” referendum on the UK’s EU negotiating aims as some in his party have been demanding.
Tory sources suggest he will promise to re-negotiate some parts of EU legislation such as employment law.
The ratification of the treaty by the Czech Republic on Tuesday scuppered Mr Cameron’s plans for a vote on it if he wins power next year.
But the Tory leader is still under pressure from Eurosceptics in his own party to offer the public a say on Europe.
