Stuart Bower is an ex-Labour activist who has now joined UKIP.  He went to court claiming that the public had a right to expect Labour to keep its promise of a referendum on the EU Treaty. 

Cecilia Ivimy, the barrister representing Prime Minister Gordon Brown, said "Manifesto pledges are not subject to legitimate expectation".  Yesterday the judge agreed, refusing Stuart leave to continue the case.

Jonathan Arnott, chair of UKIP Sheffield, said "How can anyone ever believe aother word that the Labour Party says?  How can anyone possibly consider voting Labour ever again?  Their ‘defence' was that political parties can't be expected to keep their manifesto promises; let's hope that the public remember Labour's cynicism next time they cast their votes."
