Well Done Eire.
The Irish voted with a resounding NO!
The word is that Brown is still going to ratify the treaty in spite of the fact that it is now dead and buried by the EU’s own rules. Is there no end to this man’s arrogance?
So what’s next?
You can bet your bottom Euro that in a few months time the same treaty will be re-presented with a few minor changes and a different name. Brown, if he is still in office, will refuse to hold a referendum on the grounds that the original agreement to hold a referendum no longer applies because this latest edition is totally different, just like he did last time.
Make no mistake, whilst New Labour is in office they will get a treaty ratified by hook or by crook.
