Which is another reason to vote NO.
We didn't get a guarantee on Worker's Rights, ergo, they'll still take second place to the market. And when you take into account the solidarity clause, Ireland's 'neutrality' is clearly affected, for we cease to be 'neutral', so in my view, that guarantee is worthless.
The idea that a neutral country can be aligned to others and remain neutral is nonsense.
