How John Major could fall: pro-European Tories will soon have to consult their consciences

Article Abstract:

Major has risked his own credibility and the national interest by allowing vocal Tory skeptics on the EU, such as Michael Portillo, to speak without sanction. The UK should be tough, yet supportive when the EU meets in 1996, and Tory leaders like Douglas Hurd should support Major now.
