For the Tories to ave any sort of a vote on the Lisbon Treaty would be totally futile and waste of money (these exercises don't come cheap) you can't unratify something that is already law

In that case, he shouldn't have made a "cast-iron" promise on it in his attempt to look tough on Europe.
I'll tell you one way to solve it, though, Jaysay - how about the next Tory government having a referendum on the whole question of our EU membership? You know in your heart of hearts he wouldn't dare, because he knows what the answer would be! Much better to carry on with the illusion that somehow we can be part of the EU but still independent!
