Before voting for the Lisbon treaty make sure you:
- read it
- understand it
- agree with it
Having a constitutional right to vote doesn’t mean someone should exercise it with less sensitivity than a 4 year old trying to decide which cereal to have for their breakfast. Having found the time to read some of the Lisbon treaty I must concur with Ulick McEvaddy. It’s incomprehensible and problematic for this country in many interpretations. The government is bound to campaign for a yes vote. When you listen to their arguments consider that the EU is so democratic that only a tiny fraction of EU citizens can cast their vote to decide whether to ratify it or not.
