Philip Hammond, the Foreign Secretary, and Michael Gove, the chief whip, have both said that they would be prepared to leave Europe if Britain cannot secure the necessary reforms.

Speaking on the Andrew Marr show, Mr Cameron said: "If I thought that it wasn't in Britain's interest to be in the European Union I wouldn't argue for us to be in it.

"I do this job because I Iove my country, I care passionately about its future and I want it to be a strong, proud, self-governing independent nation.

"Yes, working with other European countries on trade and cooperation, maximising our influence in the world. I believe we will get what we want.

"We need to get out of ever-close union, we need proper safeguards of the single market. At the heart of this yes of course there is a right to go and work in other European countries, but it is not an unqualified right. You should not be able to move for benefits or abuse the rules.

"What I believe is right for Britain is to seek reform, get reform and get Britain to vote to stay in a reformed European Union. If people don't like that plan the only way they get to vote to get out of the European Union is if I am Prime Minister.

"If I don't achieve that, it will be for the British public to decide whether to stay in or to get out."
