The Corbett/Méndez de Vigo report does not give fair consideration to the pros and cons of the present Treaty, and can thus be classified as 'pure propaganda'. It fails to mention that too many areas of policy are still left to intergovernmental cooperation and that important areas are still subject to veto.
The role of the constitutional regions in the European decision-making process remains precarious. Part III of the Treaty makes it clear that the Union lacks social order and confirms choices in favour of the neo-Liberal model. The European Union is still too little in the way of a security union and is at risk of emphasising the deployment of military means in favour of conflict prevention. Since these observations are not included in the report, I have voted against it. That does not prevent me from campaigning in the next few months with
in favour of ratification of the Treaty in the federal, Flemish and Brussels parliaments. After all, the Constitution is an enormous step forward and in the event of non-ratification, we will fall back on the provisions of the Treaty of Nice, which are less efficient, transparent and democratic than the present Treaty establishing a European Constitution."@en1
