Marta Andreasen speaks on the Lisbon Treaty part 2

[HOMELANDorDEATH]

im unemployed over a year now because of thiefing banker and politicians i would rather starve to death than submit to this treaty and i will vote no again, and if the result is no and they dont listen im going after our corrupt politicians and bankers. VOTE NO

[PhilanthropyIreland]

I'll givin the treaty a big fat NO vote anyway

[sirhcelah]

with a lode of builderburgs running eu what would you expect

[Shaneyh]

This clip gives more than valid reasons for voting yes.

At the moment the commision is introducing a double entry book keeping system amongst its measures to increase accountability.

Lisbon will compliment this by giving Marta's "Mickey Mouse Parliament" power in 19 new areas.

VOTE YES!

eu leaders have admitted that the elaborate re-assembly of the constitution into the treaty of lisbon was an attempt confuse and deceive the people of europe.

the treaty of lisbon was all about avoiding referendums on the constitution - avoiding dealing with legitimate complaints against the constitution. it was about keeping the substance of the constitution and moves towards further integration whilst pretending the constitution has disappeared.

it is a move against democracy and sovereignty

[SolanoIRL09]

How is it?True this is the same treaty voted on by the French,Dutch and then us but the concerns we made have been adressed by the EU.Lisbon makes Europe work better and in turn will make Ireland work better and we need that ecspecially the way our economy is going and of all the people who are now unemployed.

[7hevo1d]

the new treaty will destroy irish jobs. no concerns have been adressed. the lisbon treaty is a coup d'etat. it will bring more corruption and more wars. just look how good we are doing in afghanistan when it comes to killing civilians. please do some research.

[SolanoIRL09]

Irish jobs are already being lost,right now we have 400,000 people unemployed,the 2nd highest in the EU.The EU has no miltary force in Afganistan,it's the Nato force of which Austria and Ireland aren't a part of.

[7hevo1d]

austrian troops are in afghanistan since 2002.

do you really think we need a more federalistic europe when it comes to foreign policy? become the next imperialistic superpower like the us?

ireland is a tax paradise - that's why international companies like dell have their headquarter in ireland. that might be also one of the reasons why ireland got hit harder than other countries. so if you vote yes you will lose a lot more jobs additional to the one's already lost.

[SolanoIRL09]

Article 188 (d) states that "Union development co-operation policy shall have as its primary objective the reduction and, in the long-term, the eradication of poverty".

In Article 188J a strong commitment is given to Humanitarian Aid "for the purpose of third countries which are victims of natural and man-made disasters".Bad foreign policy?

[SolanoIRL09]

Well your right there,the Irish economy is one of the most open in the world so when the world economy is booming we'll boom and if it goes into recession we'll feel the hits aswell more severly.But tell me how a yes vote will cause more jobs to be lost?

[7hevo1d]

you should know the major changes of the new constitution.

one of them is that the eu will dictate minimum taxes on their member states. so there will be significant tax raise in ireland and the big international companies with their european headquarters in ireland will leave.
