The Lisbon Treaty is in violation of the United Nations International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights :

Article 1 : All peoples have the right to self-determination. By virtue of that right they freely determine their political status and freely pursue their economic and cultural development.

The European Arrest Warrant also violates the same Covernant ( Article 9).

Restore justice & democracy before both are gone for ever !

Vote EU-sceptic in June's European elections.

pactio olisipiensis incenda est

would, i feel, be more useful

[Anteater1234567]

Its a mimicry of the Roman orator Cato, who finished every speech, regardless of the subject, with the phase "Carthago delenda est", "Carthage must be destroyed". Carthage was, of course, a difficult enemy to the Roman republic.

Hannan says "Pactio Olisipiensis censenda est" essentially meaning "There must be a referendum on the Lisbon treaty".

Can someone please tell me what are those words he always says at the end "back to you........"

[carlosariars]

It roughly transates as: "I'm a complete idiot"

[kungfutzu]

Someone translated on one of the videos with more hits. I think it was basically "the pact should be chucked."

My Latin is nonexistent. Care to translate for a poor feeble-minded gent?
