The Celtic Tiger roars a resounding ‘NO’ to Europe’s Lisbon Treaty

The Irish, never ones to hold back on what they think or how they feel about things that really matter, have voted a loud and clear ‘NO’  to Europe’s Lisbon Treaty. And well done to them. They have taken the opportunity to tell Brussels in no uncertain terms how they feel about the future that the EU plans for not just Ireland but the rest of the EU member States as well.

The British people too wanted to have their chance to say ‘negative’ to the suffocating and destructive influence that being part of the EU has brought to their own nation only Gordon Brown reneged on his word to allow them the right to do so.

The Irish deserve our thanks. They have resisted the bullying tactics that Brussels have tried to use on them and have sent the EU administrators into turmoil. France, that bastion of ‘we do things OUR way’ are not happy yet the French themselves back in 2005 resoundingly rejected the draft of the same Treaty along with the Dutch.  Tough Titties to the French who are now taking their turn to administrate the EU.

Let’s hope the British do get their referendum but it seems highly unlikely as McBroon & Co do not want the British people to have any say in their future as a nation at all…just look at what their Nu Labour has done to the United Kingdom over the past eleven years. This once proud strong and stoic nation has become the dumping ground of Europe due to the ‘borderless’  EU and it’s dictum that anyone and everyone from the poorest EU nations can arrive on a plane at Heathrow and expect  to be afforded welfare, housing, ‘human rights’ and employment - however impractical and unworkable it is, and has proved to be.

I just sincerely hope that the British people have a long memory and use it at the ballot box at the next election. I hope they have the same balls that the Irish people have.  Enjoy Number Ten while you can Mr Brown.
