".
We voted against this motion for a resolution, because it emphasises support for the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe. The idea of pursuing the global commitment to the Treaty, which is at variance with the opinion expressed by the people of France and the Netherlands in the referendums of last year, is unacceptable.
How can we go on speaking about the need to deepen democracy when decisions freely taken by people in democratic referendums are not respected? This kind of hypocrisy demonstrates the deep chasm between the people and the elites of the Community institutions.
We also object to the propaganda campaign in the form of a series of parliamentary fora to meet the deadlines, in which they call for a ‘constitutional solution’, as the motion for a resolution confirms, when the 2009 elections to Parliament are called.
Greater attention should have been paid to social problems and to finding an across-the-board solution for the aspirations of the people, with a view to improving well-being, development and economic and social cohesion."@en1
