Three questions before you vote
1. We are asked to support stated measures to deal with an alleged crisis. Both the allegation and the proposed solution need widespread and careful scrutiny and debate, which they have not had so far.
2. Such debate should include the views of people in Northern Ireland. After all, the present constitutional provision has its roots in the Good Friday agreement. The exclusion of Northern opinion from the debate would appear to treat that agreement with contempt.
3. To vote No is not to ignore the issues involved but to insist that they be considered widely and carefully, and that we then take such action as may be necessary.
