Thanks, Ireland!
Today, we all own the people of Ireland a huge debt of gratitude. For they have voted against the Lisbon Treaty!
Ireland is the only one of the 27 EU member states have actualy put it to a popular vote. Theya re the only ones who actually asked the people what they want. And the people said no.
This should now be the end of the Lisbon Treaty. This should now be the end of the continuing sweeping up of national powers into an undemocratic suprantional institution. If the statement of the French Prime Minister is true, of course:
If the Irish people decide to reject the treaty of Lisbon, naturally, there will be no treaty of Lisbon.
If the EU force Ireland to vote again - as they did last time over the Nice treaty - then they just show themselves to be disgusting anti-democrats. And if they try, the Irish people should refuse to vote.
The Lisbon Treaty has been rejected by the only ordinary people who were given the choice. The constitution Treaty is not wanted. It must be retired, in full. With no little bits brought in through the back door as normal business.
It is not wanted. It must now be discarded and shredded.
The only appearance it should ever make again is in the history books, as a defeated attempt to remove the power from the people.
