Why we say no – 10 reasons
Below is a summary of the main reasons why we believe the Lisbon Treaty should be rejected. Please click on the headings to read a short explanation of each one.
Ireland has already said No – politicians should respect that
The Lisbon Treaty is the EU Constitution in all but name, which has already been voted down by France and the Netherlands
The Irish ‘guarantees’ are meaningless and do nothing to address Irish voters’ concerns – the Treaty has not changed by a single comma
There is no guarantee that Ireland will get to keep its Commissioner indefinitely
Most Europeans have not been given a vote
The Treaty is a bad deal for Ireland
The Treaty is bad for democracy in Europe – less powers for national parliaments
The Treaty creates powerful new institutions such as an EU President and Foreign Minister, without allowing voters a say
The Treaty does nothing to address the EU’s chronic problems
Yes campaigners have not been honest
