There is atleast one European leader who is not lying to his people and that is Ireland’s leader Bertie Ahern who admitted that the treaty is a copy of the rejected EU Constitution. He also promised a referendum to the Irish people. I hope we get one but I doubt we will.
There have to be referenda in Ireland. Any such treaty affects the Irish Constitution and as such needs a two thirds majority in both houses and a referendum.
THe Irish still have a concept of popular sovereignty.
