The (Un) Brussels spirit

comes to Irish No to Lisbon, the only sensible comment, as expected from outside the EU from Switzerland, where the media are not brought into line entirely:

"Democracy is when the end comes out, what the government wanted to advance the people may as Akklamationsinstrument plans certify the authorities Imagine.. citizens, however, we are dealing with "populism", "diffuse anxiety" or "ingratitude" to do.

This is not cynicism, but a value-neutral summary of interpretations and reactions from Brussels on the No of Ireland to the EU Reform Treaty expired.

From the start, the European reform process against the constitutional state and democratic principles. In the summer of 2005 launched the large EU constitution in the Netherlands and France was sunk in the polls. The on über250 bloated pages, illegible convolute was no majority. The bear poorly disguised intent, the European Union with the powers and the symbols of a state, was seen through and blocked. What also needs a confederation, will reportedly be no state, a constitution including the anthem, president and foreign minister?

subjected Consequently, the Euro-politicians to them agreeable consequence: They changed the packaging preserved, content, sprinkled a new letter and hoped that in "Reform Treaty" renamed Constitution on the vocal citizens smuggle pass in parliament. It was downright fresh, like Merkel, Sarkozy and Blair at the time of this staircase maneuvers in public even tapped on the shoulder. The Irishman, however could not be taken for a ride. After the no vote would have to be ratified now actually stopped immediately, but the Euro-elite, President Barroso will change during the process to continue the rules. Individual politicians put the Irishman near threatening, they should leave the EU. The Union is to be the most recognizable for what it is since its inception. A citizen distant elite project with no democratic basis "
