Guarantees that the United Kingdom will stay out of the single currency, cutting red tape, guarantees that the UK will not be forced to join a “political” union, and controls on immigration. Having repeated his four “demands” to Europe, British Prime Minister David Cameron highlighted in his speech at Davos that “the most critical issue remains immigration”, and explained the important steps taken in this area. Mr. Cameron said he had obtained concessions (without specifying his interlocutor in Brussels) with regard to his request that those arriving in Britain from other European countries will only be able to claim unemployment benefits after six months, and also with regard to his proposal that foreign workers be repatriated after six months if they are still unemployed. “My third point”, the British PM said, is that “workers should not be able to claim child benefits if their families are still living in their country of origin”. Mr. Cameron’s speech at the Davos World Economic Forum ended with the “most burning” issue on the negotiating table, that is, the request to the EU that European migrants should wait four years before getting full access to the UK’s welfare system. “This proposal is still on the table”, Mr. Cameron said. “I know that some countries are opposed to it. If there are alternatives, I am willing to look at them, but it is important that we reach a positive agreement on this issue”.
