Telecom Packages to change Europe?

[Skajo]

The EU can usher anything it wants in through the EU parliament, and if it fails it will attempt it again and again, just like it will do on the Lisbon Treaty with the Republic of Ireland.

As Detol likes to say - it won't happen. Fact.

It's against free will, unless of course you're on a government ISP then they can do what the hell they want. However, as far as I am aware, there is no government ISP.

Trust me, it CANNOT happen. .

people in ireland said they will still vote no, and they dont want the goverment to make them have another referdum

According to a part of Wikipedia on the Lisbon Treaty, a new referendum would see the YES vote win this time.

sorry but ukip will not win the election anytime soon
their goals would wreck most of britain with 5 forzen years for immigration, and much more weirder targets
the idea of EU is to disagree with things like this and if we do our bit, this will never happen

Who said they would win, I said a party in the future will get in and rid us of the EU. Five years of frozen immigration is just what we need so what are you talking about there? - they are basically the Conservative Party without the eurocrats within.

On 12 December 2008 the Taoiseach, Brian Cowen confirmed that a second referendum would be held, after an EU leaders summit agreed to keep one Commissioner per member state and to incorporate legally binding guarantees on abortion, taxation and military neutrality in the Croatian Accession Treaty. [104][105][106] An opinion poll in February 2009[update] suggested that 58% of people would support a Yes vote, against 25% supporting No.

According to this a new referendum will be held, or the EU will give Ireland exceptions and then Ireland will vote YES. As shown there, a new referendum according to that poll (and bear in mind the previous referendum was very close) the EU will manage to get this treaty through. Trust me, they will not stop until they ram it through.

It's called negotiation. One of Ireland's worries was that they were losing some of their say, so they fought this and got it back.

Do you think if Ireland didn't have to constitiuonally hold a referendum the EU would give the Irish people exceptions based on their opinion? - I don't think so.

If the EU wants negotiation then bring it on, and the first place to start if giving the people of Europe a referendum on the EU itself. Of course it will never happen, because we all know the EU would cease to exist overnight if it gave people an option on itself.

you make it sound like the EU is above other countries, like we are owned by them. whilst infact it is ourselves who installed ourselves into the european union or failed to pull ourselves out if we didn't like like the way it was heading.

you can't blame the EU itself for not giving people a refferendum, you need to blame the PEOPLE for not voting in a party taht would pull themselves out. It's called a democracy... which isn't the same as a referedum on everything.

Voting UKIP in a european election won't pull us out of Europe, nor will voting the BNP, infact all it does is hurt the UK's voice in strasbourg, by not adressing the people's needs in europe-wide issues, whilst we're still in it. I'd call that a waste of our taxpayers money.

Indeed the issue is with home governments aswell, who are often just as bad as those in the European Union. I fully agree there and that is why i'm leaning more and more onto partys such as UKIP as everytime the EU is mentioned in the Conservative Party, it decends into meltdown and backstabs its leader.

Again, the governments of europes fault aswell. However with such a large part of our laws and regulations coming from the European Union, a referendum is nessacery, and the only reason we are not given one is because the EU would cease to exist.

Voting UKIP will help the United Kingdoms voice in the European Parliament, in which the Independance/Democracy Group gains more and more power in the EU parliament which is the ultimate aim. Once the European Parliament is secured by UKIP the next stage would of course be Westminister and eventually replacing the Liberal Democrats as the third main party. UKIP often bloc vote with Indepenance/Democracy Group which gives them more of a say as that group is made of many eurosceptics. As the European Parliament Elections are PR elections, it means peoples votes will count so i'd encourage anyone to go and vote if you are of age.

There's a difference in working together, and being together.

You must admit that the EU Parliament has a 'better' way of expressing people's voices than the 2-party FPTP method. You could say that they do what they are voted in for, to do nothing because of the voters' dispisal of the EU. But I don't honestly think UKIP will make any grounds, but the ultra-nationalist BNP will do, because they promise the world to every 'white british' person there is. They are wanting to get votes so they can join and form a nationalist bloc with FORZA ITALIA and FRONT NATIONALE of France, which would actually mean they get funding from the EU.

I should be 18 for the next general election, if it takes place next year. I don't know who would be on ballot here, but it won't matter how I vote cause Kenneth Clarke (?) is my MP and has been for years and years and years.

Indeed, thats why I believe westminister should convert to PR instead of FPTP, it will eventually happen I believe when a hung parliament occurs because it is one of the Liberal Democrats biggest aims and they will seize the oppertunity when it arises. This may all be the case but the fact still remains that the EU is not wanted and any law concerning the United Kingdom should be made in Westminister and not Brussels.

UKIP and BNP are going head to head in these elections and Nigel Farages political career depends on it, if the BNP gains and UKIP makes a loss then it draws into serious question the future of UKIP. If UKIP makes strong gains like last time, then the party is growing very fast as expected and I think I might sign up for membership. I don't want the BNP to get seats in the EU parliament as I see it as lost votes for UKIP.

Ken Clarke, I like him. However its the same in my city of Liverpool, we're mostly Liberal Democrat with Labour narrowly not in control of the council, only because a local independant MP defected to the Liberal Democrats to give them overall control (thank god). When I come to vote I will probably have to vote Liberal Democrat if this country stays FPTP, if we ever convert to PR then my vote will go to the Conservatives or UKIP.
