Lisbon Leaflets

[Kerrygold]

You are a member of Sinn Féin. Good i wish to ask you a question concerning the Treaty and your subsequent policy changes. First of all can i ask you this.

Why does Sinn Féin want the existing tax system to remain in place considering the fact that you are opposed to the multi billionaires getter richer in this country? YOUR campaign posters say that if Lisbon goes through the tax system which helps the rich will be changed. Would not Sinn Féin support the idea of the rich not getting wealthier?

My second question is why is it that Sinn Féin is defending farmers in the Treaty debate when traditionally your party is supported by a Urban population? Does all this mean that Sinn Féin has abandoned the workers and has decided to adopt a more capitalistic approach so as to court new supporters or has Sinn Féin given up on Marxist Leninist policies which are not perfect but are more equal than a capitalistic party that favours the well off?

Can you please answer these questions?

What kind of stupid questions are those?

Are farmers not workers in your 'mind'?

20 REASONS TO VOTE NO
TO THE LISBON TREATY

1: Lisbon will undermine the Rights of Irish Workers – Big Business will be the Big Winners.

2: It will allow for even more States to join the EU – whose Citizens are used to far lower rates of pay.

3: Rates of pay here will be subjected to a ‘Race to the bottom’ as employers will pay as little as possible.

4: It will strengthen the hand of the EU to make Laws on the Irish People in over 30 new policy areas.

5: These will incl Crime, Justice, Tourism, Immigration, Culture, Transport, Sport, Energy & Public Health.

6: We will lose or seriously weaken the National veto we have at present in those areas concerned.

7: It will make the ‘EU Charter of Fundamental Rights’ legally binding on us all.

8: The European Court of Justice will decide what our Rights are under the Charter.

9: The Constitution of Ireland will be under the Laws of the EU in many more areas than now.

10: It will change in future the way majority decisions are made at EU level.

11: Under Lisbon over 60 more areas move to Qualified Majority Voting – that is we can be outvoted on matters of concern to us.

12: We have just .08% of the population of the EU and will have even less when the EU expands again – how much influence is that?

13: The Lisbon Treaty is open to be changed by amendment in future - and 80% of our Laws are made at EU Level.

14: The EU for the 1st time becomes a Legal Entity in its own right - you will be an EU Citizen like it or not & under the Treaty you will be subject to as yet unspecified ‘duties’ as an EU Citizen.

15: The EU will have its own President - who will however not be elected by the People but selected instead by the EU’s top Politicians on the European Council.

16: The EU intends to become a Great Power on the World Stage – we will be obliged to be part of it.

17: We will have to support any other EU State that is attacked by Terrorists or another Country outside the EU.

18: We cannot be Neutral in such a case - even if we had nothing to do with why it happened.

19: The ‘Guarantees’ obtained do not change a word in the Lisbon Treaty – it stays exactly the same.

20: We already voted NO to the Lisbon Treaty in last years Referendum – our votes were thrown in the Bin!
