Quoted from antpocas: Voted Antpocas, Surt, Sukkit: please leave the forum.
Also fuck Ireland hard
motherfuckers are soooo fucking proud of their economy
economy built on the billions and billions the EU gave them
whose saying otherwise? what's the point of letting people vote on something if you're just going to ignore their wishes? luckily it looks like Sarkozy's not going to get his way with this one.
Yes, yes he is. The Irish government is pro-Lisbon. Most governments are. One way or another, the Lisbon Treaty will become law. Maybe they will re-name it to "Cute Kittens and Adorable Puppies Treaty," but the EU is going to pass Lisbon.
yes i'm sure that somewhere down the line they'll have their way but not under the current french EU presidency. To quote the times: Quote: Since the Irish voted no, it has been kept alive on the pretext that the Irish - the only nation to have had a referendum - can be forced to change their minds. Despite the pressure from Nicolas Sarkozy of France, that is unlikely to happen, if only because of the timing. The French are already in their six-month term in the chair of the EU. President Sarkozy only has until the end of this year to make the Irish change their vote. France will be succeeded in January by the Czech Republic, which is relatively Eurosceptic, and has neither the will nor the power to change the Irish vote.
Next June will see European elections, in which Declan Ganley, the man who organised the successful Irish no campaign, is considering running 400 candidates as a Europe-wide referendum against the Lisbon treaty. In May 2010, there will probably be a British general election, in which the Conservative Party will be committed to a British referendum on Lisbon, if European ratification is not complete. Britain is a big European power and will almost certainly vote no.
