Most certainly not. The Lisbon Treaty may have been signed by virtue of national bribes and underhand tactics such as offering Ireland 2 votes, the second to obtain the "right" answer. In the UK of course Brown railroaded through UK approval for this Treaty in his usual arrogant fashion having promised a referendum.

There is no reason why David Cameron, once he wins the next General Election, cannot offer a referendum on EU membership, period. He is showing signs of having been got at on his subject but needs to be reminded about who pays his wages and what we think.

Eurosceptics may have lost the battle but they haven't lost the war. David Cameron has obviously decided he can do more to protect British interests by shoring up parliamentary defences against future Brussels raids and getting back some of what Labour has given away. I wouldn't rule out a referendum after a Tory victory in an early General Election.
