A Question of Europe

  • ... that former prime minister Edward Heath debated A Question of Europe at the Oxford Union in 1975? "an Oxford Union debate ended with a resounding vote for Europe - 493 to 92 ... Mr Peter Shore and Mrs Barbara Castle were on the anti-market side. Mr Edward Heath and Mr Jeremy Thorpe on the pro-Market side." from "The Market Debate Hots Up". Aberdeen Evening Express (Page 3). 4 June 1975.

  • Symbol voting keep.svg New enough (to mainspace today), long enough (8028 chars), neutral, cites sources (AGF on offline sources), passes Earwig and eye tests for plagiarism. ALT1 is the most interesting hook (AGF on the source), and is short enough and cited. The other two I've struck as comparatively not interesting to a broad audience, but would suffice should ALT1 be struck for an unfroseen reason. ALT2 is preferred over ALT0. QPQ is present. No image.
