SF to tell Sarkozy there can be no repeat vote
I wonder what part of “NO” he didn’t understand?
Just proves what I’ve always thought, the man is not the brightest!
In an interview in The Irish Times today, Mr Sarkozy has said he is coming to Ireland to “listen and understand”.
“I need to understand the message that the Irish wanted to convey in voting No to a treaty signed by the representatives of the 27 member states,” he said.
But the French premier has made it clear that he believes Ireland will have to vote again on the treaty which No campaigners say disregards the expressed wishes of the Irish people and is contrary to the rules of the European Union.
Arrangements for a meeting between Mr Sarkozy and prominent pro- and anti-Lisbon Treaty campaigners were thrown into confusion yesterday when the Labour Party leader, Eamon Gilmore, said he would not attend and the Fine Gael leader, Enda Kenny, decided to reserve his position.
