Europe is not a good marriage: the divorce is near (Kristof Willekens) It is almost too ironic: the nation that has benefit more than no other form the financial and infrastructural support provided by EU now says “No” to the Lisbon Treaty. A treaty that itself is a major patchwork for the initial Constitutional Treaty. This firm and clear “No” does not really seem to bother the EU patrons and is considered to be an “Irish problem”. Sin verguënza! There are several observations that need to be made towards the attitude of the great leaders that this is just an Irish problem. Primo, European leaders are trying to create an image of all against one, the one being Ireland, against all other EU members that have or will ratify Lisbon. Of course, this “No” more than what in argumentation is called a “straw man’s argument”. If there were more countries besides Ireland to organise a referendum, there is no doubt that more nations would (again) have said “No” to this new treaty. For instance, what about the United Kingdom, Poland or the Czech Republic? And didn’t France and The Netherlands already reject the Constitutional Treaty? inflandersfields.eu
