"Mr President, it would appear that all agreements reached in Lisbon are doomed. The Lisbon Strategy and the Lisbon Treaty have both ended in a fiasco. Last week Ireland rejected the Lisbon Treaty in a referendum. This means the document is now dead. The forthcoming summit will have to determine whether there is any hope of reviving the Treaty. The European Parliament should send out a clear signal that it accepts the rules of democracy even though some Members may be unhappy with the outcome. Insulting and coercing the people of Ireland is unacceptable. One way of exerting acceptable pressure would be to continue the process of ratifying the Treaty in other countries. The extreme and irresponsible comments raising the possibility of excluding such a supposedly arrogant country from the Union are cause for alarm. We hope that the European Council will consider a new and more democratic formula for the European Union."@en1
