This would leave Ireland - the only member to put the mammoth, often-unreadable document to a national vote - diplomatically isolated but nonetheless wielding the power to prevent the treaty from becoming law and forcing a period of renewed negotiations. You can see while the other European countries didn't let their citizens vote.

You can see while the other European countries didn't let their citizens vote. We were promised a vote in Britain by Tony BLIAR till he changed his mind.
Anyway, it's a pint of Guiness for me and big toast to our Irish neighbours for derailing this undemocratic monster that threatens the whole of Europe.
