Page 1 of Referendum on the new European Constitution?

The Daily Mail recently ran an `unofficial` referendum in which 1.7 million voted - with another 55,000 polled by ICM. The results today showed that a huge 89.8% voted for a referendum.

Do you think President Blair can afford to ignore such a large vote? Surely even he must know the people of this country do not accept his party`s claim that this is a `tidying up` exercise?

I`ll probably be branded some form of raving, jackbooted, xenophobic, europhobic, baby eating racist for this but I`m all in favour for a referendum. Have only come to this opinion as at present I wholeheartedly admit to not knowing all of the issues involved but if Hain & Blair are involved I`d like to hear the Fors and Againsts from the other camp too, which a referendum (hopefully) would generate. "Tidying Up"... He wouldn`t try to mislead us would he?
JMHO...ATB...F...
