    Generation Yes Lisbon Video

    I got e-mailed this video this morning by one of my colleagues.

    Although I know that Generation Yes are practically seen as the anti-Christ around here, I at least found it amusing.

    They seem to be upping their campaign on the web?


    EDIT: Liberals got there before me

    When are Generation Yes going to focus on the details of the Treaty? (as opposed to US-style negative campaigning and smear)

    If you go along to any No side public meeting, you'll get expert legal opinion and detailed debate. Generation Yes focus on glitzy media campaigns with catchy background music and no substance.

    The Irish people are not going to vote Yes to a Treaty they do not understand.

    A certain number of voters certainly tipped the NO scales because they actually believed that their sons would be conscripted into a NATO war on Antartica or the 1916 Proclamation would be thrown in a skip or deep fried aborted babies would served in chippers.

    However the majority of NO voters did so because they hadn't a notion what the Treaty was all about so they went with their gut "If you don't know, vote No."

    Attacking the gallery of grotesques among the No campaign groups is not going to clarify the Treaty for the majority of people.
