Vote Yes ..
or vote NO so we can return to the commonwealth and get another clap from the BNC
and we'll all be grand because we still remember how to cut and stack turf
and they'll all still buy Guinness by the ship load off us. That lovely Liffey water is the clincher.

Des you are pathetic. This sky will fall in unless we bend the knee to our betters is the very rhetoric the brits sold us 100 years ago. Grow a pair and stand on your own two feet.
Under the cloak of "human rights", which McGinley claims to support, the Charter of Fundamental Rights (Article 15(1)) would force Ireland to allow asylum-seekers to work even while the British optout would make Ireland the only English-speaking country in the EU to do so. This would lead to hundreds of thousands of illegals in the UK coming to Ireland, displacing Irish workers. That is the real agenda of Lisbon - a renewed race to the bottom with non-EU labour.
...and sarkozy would want to be careful when he's banning those women from wearing those crazy all-over outfits too.
Reason 101: I want the 2 Brians to screw me simultaneously. Unfortunately a No vote will get rid of my best ride for ages.
FF & FG: Tweedledumb & Tweedledumber. 1 privatises TE, other will privatise ESB
I am not interested in England, It is up to the English to run their country and their democratic elected government under their own sovereign right to do so. To force your own say in other EU members in another Democratic elected country is to overrule their sovereign right to govern themselves. That is an attack on democracy principles and what to stop other EU members from do the same to us by legalising Illegal drugs, if other EU member feel that the right to access to drug is freedom of expression or legalising Abortion with no limits as a Swedish MP is trying to do here by launching a petition last month calling for abortion to be legalised throughout the European Union. The petition, entitled 'Make Noise for Free Choice' is aimed at Ireland, Poland and Malta, all Catholic countries that ban pregnancy terminations. 1 Million signatories under the Citizen Initiative under Lisbon Treaty will force the EU Commission to look at it.
That a very dumb argument for voting for the charter. All it takes another country how support slavery to invade us to impose slavery on us.
We along with other EU members belong to the lesser known Council of Europe (NOT EU BODY)
Council of Europe
Council of Europe
European Convention on Human Rights
Council of Europe - ETS no. 005 - Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms
There is 47 European countries involved with observer status of non-European countries. It has a particular emphasis on legal standards, human rights, democratic development, the rule of law and cultural co-operation. As A founder member we sign up to it charter of human rights and under Article 4 have a ban on Slavery and incorporated it into Irish Law (Latest Revision is in 2003
European Convention on Human Rights Act 2003|) . So has the other EU members.
It is under this body that Senator Norris took the Irish Government to Court in Strasbourg to decriminalise homosexuality. In 1988 ruling of the European Court of Human Rights. The Court (not part the EU nor ECJ) found that the State's law on homosexuality violated the European Convention on Human Rights.
Some would say that all the hefty Regulations to build on your house own property is slavery to an unmerciful system or been financially at the mercy of others is Slavery.
Nothing is ever perfect as we all are very very different. It is about compromise so nothing is every perfect to others and that what democracy is all about.
Our own Constitution is hardwired of the Eamon De Valera era Politics. So is many of our own Laws is of political views that we the electorate voted in. Our own Constitution has been tweaked many times at the permission of the People and will no doubt be tweaked in the future.
We voted politicians in to the Dail on their View they express during elections. The Good news about bad Laws is they can be reversed when we vote in better politicians after the next elections when they exists!!

They both did the damage to my pockets and stole from me too within the last year!!
I can give 'interesting' reasons to drink acid and eat glass.
1. It makes your mouth spew funny colours.
2. You will find it hard to say 'Mississippi' afterwards.
3. It can invalidate life insurance policies.
4. It promotes rapid weight loss.
5. It can bring an end to dental visits.
What of it?
If I could mass-sterilise the planet, I would. Seriously.
