    De Rossa should resign as an MEP immediately

    He voted in the EP to disrespect the vote of Irish people if they voted No to Lisbon. Of course he never expected this to come to pass but it has. He must now resign as an MEP forthwith as he can no longer represent the stated wishes of his electorate.

    Another traitor. It seems that the establishment in this country care not one whit about the democratic wishes of the people. At last its becoming clear to people, hopefully friday, the 13th of June will come to pass as the day that people finally realised that the vast majority of those sitting in the Oireachtas and the EP are little more than puppets for their own set of vested interests who would prefer to see people die than actually try to improve the lot of the people that they continuously lie about, claiming to 'serve'

    They serve no one but themselves and if anyone thinks that I am being facetious with claims of allowing people to die, dont even go there - how many people have died, been misdiagnosed, brow beaten on their death bed by the fat, ugly, sickening, foul spirited political establishement in this country whilst they stuff their morbidly fat faces with steak and chips and dribble on some crappy rhetoric about reform of this or that?

    F*** the lot of them, I've had it up to my gills with their lies and deceit and their willingness to sell this country down the river....again.

    Rant definitely not over.

    I hope MLM takes his seat next year. How dare he vote against the motion in the EP promising to respect the Irish result.

    He should definately resign.

    Perhaps we should collect a million signatures across Europe to hand in to the EU demanding his resignation. We could call it an initiative, perhaps a citizens initiative.

    Fianna Fail, the Green Party and the Progressive Democrats should immediately resign from government - they have promoted and pushed for an international treaty that the people do not want! Traitors! Resign!

    Has anyone seen any reaction from him since the vote? I would've thought he would be out and about damning us all and claiming that the sky was actually falling but he appears to have disappeared.


    Gay Mitchell, on the other hand, is wandering around making pronouncements on how stupid the electorate is. He would no doubt vote us out if he could.

    The current crop of Yes Men MEPS would want to play the next few months very carefully. Their positions are looking very dodgy right now, and if Biffo tries to run a Lisbon part two they will be very likely to be the ones punished for it.

    De Rossa's job is to represent the Irish people. That vote proved he is working against the wishes of those who he claims to represent. I really hope MLM takes his seat too

    DeRossa is toast. If Labour run him again they will lose the seat. Yes he should have the decency to resign but I don't expect him to.
