Cameron says he will scrap Lisbon Treaty if he is elected - The Irish Times - Wed, Jan 14, 2009
THE BRITISH Conservative Party leader David Cameron has threatened, should Gordon Brown call an early general election, that if he wins he would scrap the Lisbon Treaty

...

In an interview with the Financial Times yesterday Mr Cameron said there was now a 50/50 chance of an early election. If the Conservatives won an election, Mr Cameron said the party "could have a referendum [on Lisbon] in October" and lead the campaign for a no vote.

...

Most political analysts predict a No campaign led by the Conservatives in a referendum on Lisbon would doom the treaty to defeat and prompt a major crisis within the Union.

And if this is not hostile action from the Tories, I don't know what is.

And, note, UKIP voters (17%!) are those who think the Tories are not Eurosceptic enough.
