A YouGov poll for The Daily Telegraph today finds that 42 per cent of voters believe that, even if the French say No, a referendum should go ahead here because relations with the EU are so important.

Excuse me, but doesn't this mean that 58% see no need for a referendum if the french say no? Doesn't this mean that 58% think that relations with the EU aren't all that important? Aren't we talking nearly 2 to 1 against a referendum? I'm missing something here. Can anyone explain this to me?

Yes, and other Brits are angry about the French situation because otherwise they could have had a nice, clean vote rejecting the EU once and for all.

Now everything is all messed up and confused.

Their leaders want the relationship regardless of what the people want and they are trying to blame the loss on Blair and the English. Saying that the agreement was too "British" for the French to vote for it. So they will go back to their back rooms and craft a new agreement and try again.
