Several Irish voters explain their vote on camera in this footage that was made available via the audiovisual services of the European Council.

Ireland, with its population of 4.5 million people, was voting on a key European Union treaty for the second time in 15 months, holding in its hands the decision on how the 27-nation block with 500 million people will cooperate.

The outcome of the vote is expected to be made public on Saturday afternoon. Voting is possible until late evening on Friday.

  • shame on the irish for voting yes

  • You know where to move to, then.

  • @MarquisdeBarrabas: Switzerland, of course.

  • WTF are you talking about?

  • The only nonsence put up on poles around the city was EU propganda the same they taught you're children with in Irish schools. How corrupt is that! The EU is just another Soviet Union.

  • If i remember rightly the EU promoted jobs yet there's been loads of job cuts in Ireland already! I'd rather be gagged with a piss stained sock than vote for the dreaded EU!

  • Give me one example of a country or group of countries whose constitution or equivalent document has been put to popular vote. Go on, humour me. Your beloved Commonwealth, maybe?

    An 'elistist diktat'?! An elitist diktat is what you and the other Europhobes crave for. Clearly, actual authoritarianism is the only thing you respect, otherwise you act like spoiled, whingeing brats.

  • Hahaha, jimed, yes it's the English 'agents''s fault.

    Anti-EU paranoia at its best.

  • Good sense - 1

    Anti-EU propaganda - 0

    Hurrah for Ireland!

  • i cant believe shit like this is what causes people to be stupid fucking pricks to each other....
