European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso attacked Prime Minister David Cameron’s pledge to restrict EU migration, and warned that the U.K. wouldn’t keep its free-trade rights if it left the EU.
Barroso used a speech in London today to say Cameron was making a “historic mistake” in trying to end free movement within the EU, and that while European partners want to keep Britain in the bloc, “there are red lines.” The premier wrote yesterday that he planned to put EU immigration “right at the heart of our negotiations in Europe.”
