EU Federalists now argue Britain cannot de-ratify Lisbon.

An extraordinary letter in the EU controlled Guardian this morning, linked here, which contains this gem: Britain has already ratified the treaty: it's not a law and can't simply be repealed or reversed, so a referendum would probably have no legal effect, although its political impact could be devastating. The letter is signed by a Mr Brian Barder from London. Mr Barder has a strange view of the world if he believes that our proven rotten legislature can break a clear promise by ratifying a Treaty upon which a referendum had been promised, and then refuse to reverse their own non-mandated actions when such a referendum is finally undertaken! The servile status of Britain desired by Mr Barder is betrayed when he later goes on to write: This act of wanton sabotage would wreck Britain's standing in Europe. Few of our partners would accept a UK veto. Yet the French and Dutch results were given token recognition and the Irish referendum result is being recognised with the preparation of legal loopholes for the Irish ahead of the Second Irish Referendum. If the result of the ruling in the German Constitutional Court comes down against the Lisbon Treaty, will few of their partners accept that veto? Of course not, the EU considers Britain a conquered offshore group of islands with which they can now do as they please, thanks of course to our corrupt politicians, who according to the blog of Nadine Dorries MP, now cower in Westminster contemplating suicide, read here, but NOT over guilt over what they have done to their country, but solely over their discovered shopping and claiming activities as may be read in her posting.
