SORRY I'm not responsible of yesterday's result concerning the referendum and the European constitution. I feel pretty shameful of such an arrogant and selfish reaction. Stay quiet, it won't (at least I hope) affect Ferry rates and customs regulations and ACO ticket prices.

Well, Wednesday is my turn to vote. Luckily there are websites nowadays which can point you into the right direction.

SORRY No need to be sorry Giles. Some people on this side of the channel are delighted by the result.

The French people have told Gistard D'Stang to shove his plans for a European Superstate up his derriere. Well done France.

These days it's Jacques Chirac, But "Up Yours Delors" has such a nice ring to it. :-) I'm all in favour of Free and Fair trade. I don't even mind having Great Britain classed as part of Europe. But all the stupid beuracratic bullsh*t really gets up my wick. Who give a **** what shape a Banana is. If I see a Banana and I like the look of it I'll buy it. If I don't like the look of it I won't. I just don't need some jerk in Brussell telling me what I like. I'm British I'm proud of it. I love England it' s the most wonderful place in the world when the sun shines. (Apart from mid June of course :-) I want ot keep the pound I rememer when we had real money £/s/d changeing to £.p really pushed up the cost of living cos people didn't have a good handle on the new values. Moving to the € will do the same. Well done the French Nation. t.

In my limited knowledge about what happened, the little that I know tells me to say, congrats to the French for standing up against their "sell you down the river" president and his European cronies. The Netherlands has a chance to do the same and protect their sovereignty on Wednesday. We tried to do about the same thing 150 years ago. It was called the US civil war. Yes it was different in that it was about certain states against other states, but the underlying principles appear to be almost identical. It was not about slavery as many who rewrite history would tell you. It's about your right to be who you are as a people, not be dictated to by outsiders and to maintain your cultural heritage. No apologies to me Giles, I applaud your countrymen for standing up for what they believe to be best for France. VIVA LA FRANCE. Damn that sounds good for me as an american to say for a change.

These days it's Jacques Chirac Chirac wheeled the arch federalist D' Stang out of retirement to write the constitution, more jobs on the gravy train for the boys. "Up yours Delors" had a lovely flow to it, much better than "Shove it Chirac" See you on the ferry Tom, as we travel to the land of independant thinking.

No shame as far as I'm concerned either. (Though I do worry that it seemed to be rejected for all the wrong reasons.) Let's hope this is the end of the whole wretched Superstate project, but I have my doubts.

Have to confess that I dont know much about this particular waste of money but what I do know is that I dont want a bunch of overpaid pratts in some place in the centre of a state that they want to call Europe telling me what to do with my..............
a) Time b) Money c) Life
Millions died to keep this landmass free of pergitory and what are they now trying to do with it all. The French are French the Brits are Brits The Germans are Germans etc etc and so it should remain. We have learned to live in harmony so lets get on with it.
God save the £ and bring back Topic and dump the Snickers Bar
