I AM all for a united Europe based on democracy; however I am against the present corporate structure imposed by the EU commission. Many folk may be surprised that central Govt are trying to pass the EU constitutions via the back door, by pretending it's merely a treaty. And while most folk rightly demand a referendum on the issue, they should take a look into the histories of both the UK and the United States, both of which have constitutions that were imposed on a population without the consent of the people.

Both were drawn up by elite groups of rich white males to protect the interests of rich white males, and where the U.S. may start with 'we the people' it was never put to the people.
