Prime Minister David Cameron could make a "historic mistake" by alienating eastern European nations as he bids to renegotiate the UK's links with Brussels, outgoing European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso has warned.
David Cameron has hit back at criticisms from outgoing European Commission President José Manuel Barroso, saying he is very clear that his "boss" is the British people.
The Prime Minister said he would deliver a referendum on EU membership and address concerns over immigration despite warnings from Mr Barroso that Britain would not even retain "marginal relevance" if it leaves and could be making a "historic mistake".
Speaking during a visit to the Ford factory in Dagenham, Mr Cameron said: "What we need in Britain is a renegotiation of our relationship with the European Union and then a referendum where the British people decide do we stay in this reformed organisation or do we leave it."
He added: "I'm very clear about who the boss is, about who I answer to and it's the British people - they want this issue fixed, they are not being unreasonable about it, and I will fix it."
