EU: The politics equivalent to the hokey cokey

Can't we have a more subtle debate about the EU than being in or out? David Cameron (or whoever wrote it for him) has a go in the Daily Telegraph today. It's not the most coherent article ever written but its broad theme is an important one: that the EU is bogged down in talks about mechanisms when it should be a forum for collective action on the major challenges facing member states.
Rather than having "red-lines" to defend, when will a British PM head to one of these summits with a positive agenda? Why is Britain always on the defensive rather than putting forward its own vision for the future of the EU?
