    Was someone from that country recently saying that they would reverse Lisbon there if they got into power?

    That's the Tories, I think.

    I never expected anything else. There has been immense diplomatic pressure applied.

    btw eurosceptic your signature sums exactly the reasons our country needs to stay out of the union. Its no longer a mere trading agreement- its become a machiavellian beaurcratic monster out to devour the unsuspecting

    Well then let me post (for the first time in a while) my response signature. ES signature is full of holes - unlike the nets used by Atlantic Dawn fisheries.
    Thanks to the poster who taught me to use the ignore list!

    Depends how you count the numbers zelen. CAP payments are compensation for the manufactured market price of agricultural produce. Outside the EU our farmers could charge the full market price. Our own fishermen cost CFP at 200 billion. Most structural funds went back to europe as they had to be spent on contracts with european firms.
