    Well, it's all over bar the whoops of delight from one side or the other. I'm putting my money on the yes side winning:

    56%-Yes, 44%-No.

    What do other posters think?

    Maybe its my present pessimistic mood, but I fear it could be 53% to 47% in favour of No.

    I voted Yes, btw.

    If the traitors scare the bayjasus out of people into voting Yes, can we have the best of three? Afterall, if people are voting Yes for job, it is obvious they do not understand the treaty. :)

    55/45 Yes.

    And to rub salt, all of the No Fantasist's fears to be realised. Conscription starts Monday morning after Supreme Chancellor and Glorious Sunshine Leader Tony Blair delivers his first address to a rally in Brussels and we're to invade Norway for their oil. After a skirmish in which he loses his hand, Declan Ganley is told that he's Blair's son.

    It'll play out in 3 parts. And then 16 years later, a further 3 parts although slightly more disappointing.

    When they remaster it, they'll have Jens Peter Bonde shoot first in the Stasbourg Canteen shootout scene, thus ruining most people's childhood.

    Too far with the Star Wars?

    Is it undemocratic to have a referendum on the same amendment more than once or is it just the timing that's bothering you?

    Yes but they are legally prevented from using one of the provisions in the document because the Irish people objected to it. FACT
