Giscard’s outrageous constitution stance

AS outgoing MEP for the North West constituency I wish to express my concern at the recent statement by Giscard d’Estaing, on BBC2’s Newsnight.

He stated that if one country rejected the EU constitution then the union would look at the margin of rejection, re-explain the position as they had done in Nice II and put it to the people again.

Mr d’Estaing also said it was not acceptable for a member state which rejected the EU constitution to hold others back. He and the rest of the EU political elite ignore EU law and insult the democratic process when they say that rejection of the EU constitution by a sovereign member state is not acceptable.
