Comments on: Eyes of Europe on Ireland http://oconallstreet.com/2008/06/12/eyes-of-europe-on-ireland/ Borderless thoughts on Public Relations, Public Affairs and anything else that matters from Conall McDevitt, MD of Weber Shandwick in Northern Ireland Thu, 08 Jan 2009 14:10:24 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: United Irelander http://oconallstreet.com/2008/06/12/eyes-of-europe-on-ireland/#comment-2839 United Irelander Sat, 14 Jun 2008 23:27:17 +0000 http://oconallstreet.com/2008/06/12/eyes-of-europe-on-ireland/#comment-2839 "Less then 1% of the electorate of the European Union have been handed a veto on this important agreement." Less then 1& of the electorate of the European Union were consulted... "O’Conall Street makes no apology for saying yes to Lisbon. We are happy to stand alongside the main political parties in the state, the social partners and the vast majority of stakeholders in Irish society. Not to mention the governments of every other member state in the EU." The self-serving elite in other words. Care to tell us where you stand on the issue of a repeat referendum on the matter? Are you with Eamon Gilmore who believes a repeat referendum should be avoided, or do you believe the will of the people can be ignored in this instance? “Less then 1% of the electorate of the European Union have been handed a veto on this important agreement.”
