Lisbon opponent must stand up and be counted

DOES anyone else feel Declan Ganley, when saying he does not know what it feels like to be a politician, is acting just as one. Pot. Kettle. Black.

Lisbon opponent must stand up and be counted

It is quite extraordinary that such a leading figure in the campaign against the Lisbon Treaty, when pressed on where he sees Europe going, replies with a pause, hesitance and a response out of one of Stephen Collins’s books, “Eh... I dino”.

Mr Ganley should either stand up and be counted or cease opposing something because it helps to pass the time for a few weeks. If he doesn’t have a vision for Europe, or at least an opinion on it, then how can he encourage voters to be so cynical of everything that comes from the pen of our elected representatives in Brussels, et al?
