Europeans unified in rejecting Europe
As a citizen of Europe, I feel it is my duty to say a few words about the proposed new European Consitution. This European Constitution has made the European Union a "hot topic". This means that the average European thinks about the EU slightly more than about, say, the migratory behavior of the yellow-casqued hornbill of Africa. And so, politicians and media outlets alike desperately attempt to make us interested in a topic that to most of us is profoundly dull, except when it affects out pocketbooks.
Based on what I've heard and read from people who should know more about this than me, there are two things you should know about the European Constitution:
- It's not a Constitution.
- To the average citizen, having or not having this Constitution doesn't make any difference.
