The deal includes permanent exemption from "ever closer union," protections for the British pound, and new restrictions on welfare access for EU migrants. Cameron intends to recommend that the UK remain in the EU based on these concessions, which aim to address domestic concerns about sovereignty and the "something-for-nothing" welfare culture.
