Labour praying for a Yes vote in Ireland so they don't have to face a vote in the UK

I've just seen this tweet from Claire Hazelgrove a London based Labour candidate for Skipton & Ripon:


I bet you are Claire. After all your party betrayed its election manifesto to give the UK a referendum, and doesn't want the people of Britain getting is democratic rights from an incoming Conservative administration. ( Yes we've heard all the weasel worlds about treaties not constitution, but even the Labour MP who helped form the constitution admits they are the same ).

Labour are running scared of any votes they can't fix.

Yes its going to get very messy from here on in.

I sometimes think all the civil liberties infringements and government databases etc are aimed at holding the country down as the EU completes its last step to becoming an oppressive state.

I found that Irish result deeply depressing. But hey, the word "vite" has cheered me up a bit.

Good old typos - I got that one before I saw your comment honest.

Still perhaps the Lisbon Treaty has a few and can be invalidate - the only problem is I think the legal version is in French ...
