New Tory European group: Dave pulls it off :: Benedict Brogan
They said it couldn't be done, so this announcement is a success for Dave in Europe. The new European Conservatives and Reformists Group has 55 members from eight countries. That makes it the fourth largest group and entitles it to a share of the committee slots and other perks of the EU parliament.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
