If you could vote on the Lisbon Treaty, what would you vote, and why?

Very shortly in my country we will hold a referendum (vote) which will determine the future of the European Union. I've heard everything the politicians have to say about it, but what i REALLY want to know is what my fellow europeans think about it, since at the end of the day it will affect us all

Cheers!

You will see France and Germany at each others Throat one more time!
Both tried the other way to dominate Europe,failed,so now they are trying the "nice" political collectivist way,and will fail again.
Small Countries are getting crushed by that Crew in Brussels.
Nonelected Bureaucrats have more power than elected Officials,and that has always been a Recipe for Failure!
They are screwing with my Rights,and CH isn't even a Member of that failing Club!uh oh mumbling

Just another treaty to give you less power in your own country...

European Union was a good idea at the beginning. But they should have asked some advises to Swiss people....

If you want more sovereign and democratic powers transferred to an unelected and disjointed commission, accountable to nobody, then vote Yes.

The Lisbon Treaty gives more power to the European Parliament that controls and can reject the Commission's proposals. The MEP are elected by YOU. You should vote YES to keep control on your life.

Yeah I know. Hope you will say YES this time and stop blocking the whole process. I think it was no good idea to allow some countries to vote on this treaty. Most of people do not understand anything about the Treaty and just vote NO if they do not like their actual government or YES if they support the government. They confuse the national politics with the EU politics.

I think more countries voted yet if they didn't like their government and how it was run, thinking that eu running it would be better.....

In Ireland we have a true democracy in that if there is an important decision to be made, up to the present time, then every person in the country, who has a vote, can decide for themselves in a referendum.

Most of the people here, who understand the importance of taking responsibility for their own decisions, like that choice.

Voting "yes" would take that privelidge away forever.

It is only in a monetary way that Ireland would gain if people voted "yes" this time, certainly not socially or culturally.

For probably the same reasons I would vote Yes laugh

Make no fuzz about it, this treaty will change Europe in its foundations, and I am not sure, wrong... I AM sure not many have got a good grip about what it is all about. If you hesitate about what it translates to regarding autonomous rights among today's members, control over finance and education, yes, anything about what you are used to know coming from your local mp and his mates... vote No.

No one should vote yes without understanding this one.

Great post this!
