Non and Nee

Is there anyone out there that can definitely say they fully understand the EU Constitution? I mean, not someone that has studied it or is a politician, but the person in the street.

Right now, how would you vote if we were given the chance of a referendum?

Personally, I would say no.

Why? Well, for a variety of different reasons. The biggest reason for me is the loss of our legal system, taxation, asylum and immigration and many other things that would suffer enormously were they to be given over to the European Union.

Yes, I agree there are benefits to adopting a constitution that meets the objectives of all Member States. However, as long as we are free from the Euro, will accepting the constitution really make any difference to our lives?

Economically, we are not able to sign up to the Euro. That’s a simple fact.

There are many arguments for and against acceptance and I’m not about to list them all here. However, if you feel you need further information on which to base your own decision (rather than that of some bloke on his blog), you might wish to look here.

Alternatively, searching on Google UK will provide you with a plethora of links.

Happy reading.
