"The People’s Pledge is the politically independent campaign for an EU referendum. We believe whatever our relationship with Europe is to be, the British people should have the say on what that is." [1]
In March 2011 Daniel Hannan reported that: "The People’s Pledge is chaired by a lifelong Labour man, John Mills. Its director is Mark Seddon, the former editor of Tribune. It was launched today by a Conservative MP (Zac Goldsmith) a Labour MP (John Cryer), a Green Assemblywoman (Jenny Jones) and a trade union activist (Brian Denny)." [2]
