No Way Jose!
I see that Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero has today predicted that European countries will eventually close their embassies and allow the EU to promote a unified foreign policy if member states approve the proposed constitution.
"We will undoubtedly see European embassies in the world,not ones from each country,with European diplomats and a European Foreign Service," Zapatero said in Madrid.
Meanwhile,Spaniards are to vote on the EU constitution on Sunday,the first time any Europeans will vote on the charter.A yes vote is expected.
The comments of Zapatero are indicative of why I oppose the European Union so much.The EU are paving the way for a European Superstate and they seek to erode the hallmarks of each nation,in this case by a unified foreign policy.
I am saddened that a yes vote is expected in Spain but if the Spanish desire a European Superstate,and it seems their Prime Minister does,then that is their business.
This is one Irishman that does not and I hope my compatriots give a resounding NO to the EU constitution,the greatest ever threat to Ireland's sovereignty.
