In June the 23, 2016 United Kingdom will hold a referendum on their EU-membership. One of the triggers was the letter that David Cameron sent to Donald Tusk November 10, 2015: “A settlement for the United Kingdom in a reformed Union“.
The purpose of the present thesis is to make a profound analysis of David Cameron’s letter, analyzing the proposals and demands he places on EU. Cameron has four main areas that he has worked for: Economic Governance, Competitiveness, Sovereignty and Immigration.
In the analysis the focus is to analyze the conclusive power of the arguments Cameron has in each of the four main areas where the United Kingdom is seeking a reform.
