BBC Radio 4 - Analysis, Labour, the Left and Europe

Edward Stourton asks if Labour should re-evaluate its attitude to the EU.

The nature of the European Union is changing. Should Labour re-evaluate its attitude towards it? Edward Stourton investigates.

The crisis in the eurozone means that fundamental changes to the European Union are on the agenda. Conservative politicians have called for a re-appraisal of the UK's relationship with a more integrated and potentially less democratic EU. Yet Labour's leadership is curiously quiet on the topic.

Edward Stourton talks to leading figures in Labour's policy debate and finds out what rethinking is going on behind the scenes.

Producer: Chris Bowlby.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
