Referendum on an E.U. Constitution? No Chance.

7th November 2002.

As ever, the dear old British government presents a fundamental change to our Constitution - in this case, about as fundamental a change as you can get, namely its replacement by a foreign one - as nothing more than a simple matter of tying up loose ends, "consolidating" what is already there, all for the sake of "efficiency", you understand. No, no, no need for anything so vulgar as a referendum, old chap, it really won't make a jot of difference; after all, we're slaves already, don't'cha know?
