Talk:Bruges Group (United Kingdom)

message: The first paragraph is quite clearly biased. It seems as though two people have had an editting debate. There are two issues there:
1) Whether or not the Burges Group is officially linked to the Conservative Party. The answer is no.
2) Whether or not the Burges Group shares members with the Conservative Party. The answer is yes.
These are not the same thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.206.86.146 (talk • contribs) 
I have removed some unreferenced generalisations which are open to dispute and have been in the article for a considerable time. Happy to see something similar go back in if it is better referenced. Proteus4 20:03, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: First paragraph

message: The wording of the introduction is using very 'pro' language: 'It spearheads the intellectual battle against the notion of an "ever-closer union"'.  This is hardly neutral phrasing.
Likewise, elsewhere in the article 'Following this move for UK independence'.  The UK is an independent state (as are all EU nations) as the UK government's own whitepaper admitted.
It then drifts into the surreal: 'with keeping the popular insurgency alive over more than four decades'.  (If this is a direct quote, it should be made clear.)

thread_title: Biased Language

message: IMHO this article has sharply deteriorated over about the last month and a whole load of interesting historical information has gone and links removed. Can we collectively build up the article again. Proteus4 11:39, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, and have added back the material which was removed in the edits of April 2007. It seems encyclopaedic and no argument was made to remove it. I hope that in future anyone who wishes to remove major sections of the article will discuss their reasons for doing so on the talk page. Terraxos 05:56, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
