They are now talking of having another referendum because we obviously made a mistake the first time, You have to love the illusion of democracy.
I dont think people are against a European Union it's the

Yeah dead right islandman and thankyou Ireland for the vote againt the Lisbon treaty but i tend to feel that they're goinna keep hammering away at it until it gets passed-sickens me that they never take no for an answer!!!It's our damn right to say no if we feel so and it should be accepted.
