When the Irish voted against the Lisbon Treaty just recently they mean’t it. And the British too would love to have their chance to do the same. But those leaders of an increasingly fascist Europe – France and Germany – are doing their best to ignore this.

Sarkozy wants a ‘Oui’ from Ireland, and every other EU nation, and is prepared to use bully tactics to achieve his aims.

The Irish Govt are bending to pressure from Brussels and are expected to ask their free thinking citizens to vote again – and this time they want a ’sea’ – a ‘yes’.  But I don’t like it’s chances.

The Irish used their democratic process – one of the few left who use their opportunity to tell Brussels where to get off – and it should be accepted that the people have spoken. The French have their own liberal view with regards to EU laws and directives; they follow the one’s that suit France and ignore the rest which other EU nations have to tolerate.

Sorry France, sorry Sarkozy – the Irish are a different kettle of fish. They have said ‘No’ and they mean it. You can force as many referendums on them as you like – the answer will still always be the same.

So deal with it.
