Don?t Be Fooled by the ?Britain is Growing? Fairytales Thu Mar 28, 2024 15:22 | David Craig
Don't be fooled by the 'Britain is growing' fairytales, says David Craig. Any 'growth' is accounted for by the hike in the benefits bill and in civil servants' pay and a heap of other unproductive deficit spending.

Jump To Comment: 1 2After the last blowback the european governments had to take from the frensh and the dutch people againat their neoliberal treaty, they luachned now a second attempt to restructure the european government. The aim is to adapt the european decision making process to the neoliberal circumstances. It is supposed to make the decision making process more efficient - which always means taking power from the people.
After all, in most european countries the left movements hope for the Irish, to stop this process. Even though some of the motivs of being against the treaty might be suspicious, the effect of the treaty on european military policy, on nuclear policy and social rights as well as on the few political participation there is left for the people would be terrible. In Germany nevertheless most groups have given up on the topic. As the treaty is supported by all major parties except from the left party, a success of an opposition against the treaty seems to be out of reach. Especially as the treaty is strongly backed by main stream media. Opposition against the treaties is put forward as an anti-european protest, which it is not.
Since the treaties themselves are written in a very abstract way, it is on the other hand very difficult to make people understand what the follow-ups of the treaty would be. So most activists did not join in a campaign that seemed useless, but prefered to hope for the aid of others - in the case the Irish movements to stop the so called Lisbon treaties.
Nutrality?
Neutrality is a non issue with this referendum. If you care about Iraq (i.e have a moral conscience) then you must vote yes. It's as simple as that. A strong Europe would have not let Iraq happen. Vote no means one thing and one thing only - Ireland will go more towards USA.
