I'm sure there is more to this than meets the eye.. the leading French Presidential candidate doesn't feel this treaty should be happening and will
renegotiate Frances position if it comes into effect before the Presidential elections.
Does that sound somewhat familiar al la Lisbon, all the huffing and puffing about renegotiation etc about treaty changes that comes into effect just
prior to elections.
The whole deal smells fishy... and I believe Cameron saved the EUs and Sarkozys neck by ensuring his veto pushed this into an intergovernmental treaty
rather than actually having to go and ask the peoples of Europe what they want..
No matter the colour of tie they are all sneaky watsits.
Besides I do believe the establishment like to make statements to ensure we are all on the same page and have the same understanding of what is going
on.. take this Fiscal Union Treaty.. or in EU speak of acronyms the FU Treaty speaks volumes about what is really happening.
