The Right Programme for Europe

These extracts from a speech given by Mr Heath to the Royal Institute for International Relations and the College of Europe, in Belgium, 1989 offer a clear view of a genuine European economy. From the founding treaties to the Single European Act; the issue of sovereignty; the Single European Market and the European Monetary System(EMS); a single thread is traced – “We in Britain are Europeans”. The historical, pertinent and present‐day arguments for European integration are unfolded.
