Constitution of Europe 2004. Your vote.

Post by Olivier »

If there was a referendum next sunday on the Constitution of Europe, what would you vote?

(and why?)

Depends veery much on what the constitution would be like. I wouldn't vote for the current constitution proposal, but I probably would vote for the proposal made by the intergovernmental discussions (HVK in Finnish, someone please translate better). So, I won't vote on this poll quite yet ;)

I'm also not that informed, so I would probably abstain. But I'm counting on getting enough info to be ready to vote on the referendum (I only vote on referenda - I don't like to vote on parties :roll: )

I have read the constitution (tanks to Avij for the link in another thread)...
I really don't know.

I don't agree with most of you, because I wish we got a federal Europe. This constitution is too complicated, not enough democratic for me... I don't understand why we would get a minister of foreign affaires but no government... I don't see what will be better than today.

If the vote was on sunday, I would probably vote no.
(but I keep my vote on the poll for the moment. ;-) )

It's better to have one minister of foreign affairs. Now we have two people in Europe who walk in eachothers way. We have Chris Patten (UK) who is a member of the commission and who has the foreign affairs in his pocket. On the other hand we have also Javier Solana (Spain) former NATO secretary-general who is the high representative of the EU foreign policy.

Calling it Minister is maybe a sign to the rest of the world that we are going to speed up our foreign relations. That is where I think that Europe has some problems.
