45. Kept Britain out of the Euro. We have not, and will not, join the Euro.

46. Introduced a ‘referendum lock’ to ensure that any proposed change to the EU treaties that moves powers from the UK to the EU will have to get the consent of the British people.

47. Used the Government’s balance sheet to back new nuclear at Hinckley Point C.
