  • The Lisbon treaty's "citizen's initiative" tells us all we need to know about the EU.

    Even though there is no legal basis for a European "citizenship" and such a thing does not exist (see the recent German Constitutional Court ruling)..."citizens" will be "allowed" to gather one MILLION signatures and present their petition to the UN-ELECTED commission who are then free to ignore it !

    This is a punch in the face for those who still believe in democracy.

    George Orwell is turning in his grave.
