As Manchester United's 1 Premier League heroes walk onto the turf at Wembley today, one of the club's greatest names from 10 the past will not images be there 05 to watch them. He told the conference that the htm recommendation jpg of EU vets bakesale for the partial 1 lifting of the ban bakesale on some beef products was a 'step in the pages jpg right direction'."We look to our European Photos partners pages bakesale 05 jpg htm to accept that recommendation," he said. "I 06 have to say htm to our European partners that the strategy bakesale pursued by them has not worked in that 10 they hoped that 05 by banning images British beef their own industry would be OK.". Mr Photos Redwood proposed a pages compromise referendum, on whether Britain should be part of a looser single market, or a European superstate.Mr Rifkind 06 said: "I 05 jpg don't believe there is any possibility of the Government considering further referendums on images European issues. The single currency was a specific question."Mr Rifkind bakesale was speaking after steering a careful line over the European ban on British beef which showed images Photos bakesale 10 1 06 a clear pages bakesale 05 jpg htm difference of approach to 1 Europe between Michael Heseltine and the Euro-sceptic Scottish Secretary Michael Forsyth.The Foreign Secretary sidestepped 10 questions about Mr Forsyth's view, bakesale that the ban was part of a cynical exercise htm to 06 destroy images Photos bakesale 10 1 06 competition by Britain. pages Bill Cash, the leading Euro-sceptic campaigner, Photos will force a vote bakesale in June in the Commons on a referendum on Britain's membership of the EU.

It increases the threat that Euro-sceptic candidates could be put up against Conservatives, helping Labour in key Tory marginals. Its rejection will disappoint Tory Euro-sceptic MPs, who support the call for a fresh referendum on Europe. The uncompromising rejection by Mr Rifkind at the Scottish Conservative Party conference in Aberdeen makes it highly unlikely that Mr Redwood will be able to reach any deal between the Government and Sir James, the leader of the Referendum Party. Without a Scottish Parliament, more people out of frustration may opt for separation," Sir David warned.. Malcolm Rifkind, the Foreign Secretary, yesterday threw out a referendum deal being brokered by John Redwood and Sir James Goldsmith to make Goldsmith to withdraw his threat to put up independent candidates against Tories at the general election. That message will be seen as an attempt to neutralise the power of Labour's appeal that it is "time for a change".The commitment to the Union was reinforced by Cabinet ministers at the Scottish conference, led by Brian Mawhinney, the party chairman.

Claiming the Conservatives would be the only party with candidates wedded to maintaining the Union, Dr Mawhinney said: "We are a Unionist party by conviction."However, Sir David Steel, the former Liberal Democrat leader, last night warned Mr Major he was making a fatal mistake in opposing more devolved powers for Scotland "It is they who are risking the Union. I have too high a regard for the British people to try and bribe them with tax cuts we can't afford."Mr Clarke refused to rule out tax cuts, but a rise in borrowing and a pounds 6bn gap in expected VAT receipts has made his room for manoeuvre much smaller.Instead, Mr Major is planning to focus his conference attack on the threat of Labour tax rises, including the "Tartan tax" for the Scottish Parliament, and the "teenage tax", equivalent to pounds 560 a year, if the Shadow Chancellor, Gordon Brown, scraps child benefit for 16- 18-year-olds as part of Labour's welfare reforms.He will hold out the prospect of the return of the "feelgood factor" with low inflation and low interest rates being put at risk by a Labour Government.In a foretaste of the Tory election strategy, Mr Major will tell wavering supporters Labour would "throw it all away". The Chancellor told the conference: "Let me make one thing clear on tax. Restoring our reputation for competence and regaining the trust of the British people does not involve buying votes through tax cuts that will not last. Mr Major is expected to claim Labour's devolution plans will endanger the fabric of Britain, and - coupled with Labour's pro-European stance - damage Britain at home and abroad. The Prime Minister will seek to draw the line under the Tory losses in the local elections, and turn the Conservative fire on Labour over tax, which was looking increasingly vital for the Tories after Kenneth Clarke damped down hopes of a pre-election tax giveaway in the next Budget. The Prime Minister's campaigning speech to the Scottish Conservative Party conference in Aberdeen will make constitutional commitment to Scotland a cornerstone of the Tory General Election campaign.
