".
The new Europe means survival because it rejects all forms of totalitarianism. We paid with our blood for our commitment to the European ideal of achieving freedom of thought, religion and conscience.
European integration, the way the 25 EU Member States function together and making the Community procedures work better must be improved and must progress, with care, little by little.
Asking simple questions about this ‘Constitution’ should not lead to accusation of being anti democratic; Understandable and credible answers are still needed.
Under this Constitution, the uncontrolled European Court of Justice will apply judgements directly and unequivocally to all Community institutions and bodies and the Member States. No constitutional lawyer has been able to show me where it is guaranteed that the Court will not infringe the various national competencies and policies.
Even if Parliament’s elected majority or the composition in the Council of Ministers changes, how can the EU major political orientation be changed when set out in a constitutional document requesting a double unanimity?
Finally, in refusing Christian heritage, the cultural short-sightedness of this Constitution is a worrying form of revisionism. Granted, the Treaty of Nice did not contain any reference to Europe’s Christian heritage; but it did not claim to be a Constitution either."@en1
