It is simple – no point in spending hours of wasted time trying to sell this idea of a “treaty” – WE DO NOT by majority want the EU telling us how to run our lives and our countries! When will the politicians realise we all LOVE EUROPE but HATE THE EU. The politicians are yet again not listening to the will of the majority – what do we have to do to MAKE them listen and act upon our wishes?? WE do NOT WANT THE EU!!
