UK and EU: European politicians on Britain in Europe

Britain's attitude to Europe and David Cameron's desire to renegotiate the UK's relationship with the EU is a hot topic for politicians in Brussels and Strasbourg.

David Thompson has been finding out what they make of the UK's troubled relations with the EU, with talk of a referendum or a new deal for British membership.

He spoke to MEPs Alain Lamassoure, Guy Verhofstadt, Derk-Jan Eppink, Hans Van Baalen, Alexander Graf Lambsdorff and Manfred Weber.
