« Tony Blair’s new friends…. Tory support for EU symbols… »

Spitting on the Irish

When the Irish voted “NO” to the Lisbon Treaty we were told that, amongst other things, the treaty would be stripped of its “symbolism”.

Tomorrow, the European Parliament votes onĀ  insertion of “a new rule on the use by Parliament of the symbols of the Union”.

If accepted, and I predict that it will be, Parliament will sing the European anthem whenevr it convenes, fly the EU flag at all buildings and display it in every meeting room, etc, etc,…

So the bit about stripping away the symbolism was a complete lie.

It will be a “roll call vote” tomorrow, so we will watch closely and report back on exactly who does spit in the faces of the Irish electorate.
