The middle class Bulwark that has been holding this country back for the last 50 years needs to be dealt with.Apparently they have money to burn tp keep the status quo.They arent the ones suffering.Despite the claims of the media.They,ll find someway to send Josh and Eric to colledge so that they can hold on to their privledged position.Meanwhile others are struggling to put food on the table.How much more can you take?If the outcome of a capitalist democracy is a stuffed unmovable middle class inert to any real change then what is the point?

Any idiot that votes yes for this pile of trash deserves an unmentionable fate.

haasny007 "So the question is: Will Irish voters shoot themselves in the foot?" You sound as if you had shot yourself in the head.

Bythebay: "GeorgeDillon, this has nothing to do with Mass Immigration." What an idiot you are. Every vote on the EU is a vote on Mass Immigration. This despite the lies of the Irish ruling class--and their useful (or more accurately, useless) idiots such as you. I was in Ireland maybe 15 years ago when the Irish political parasites were telling the citizens that there would be no wave of Mass Immigration if they voted Yes to one of these EU plebiscites. The Irish voted Yes, and, as I predicted to them, Ireland was swamped by foreigners and changed forever. All to suit a lousy parasitical and treacherous ruling class.

Opinion polls are statistical devices used by political establishments and their press/media class collaborators to predicate to their unthinking masses how to behave in a game called representative democracy. (Any posters on line, unlike me, ever been canvassed?) Opinions polls do not represent public opinions. The represent the opinions your social betters in the political establishment want you, the great unwashed public to have. A two-track European Union (EU) is more compatible for two island nations like Ireland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain. I'm for one foot in EU and the other in an Anglo-American (Commonwealth) Alliance AA(C)A. Geography dictates politics like structure determines function. Ireland has more in common with United States of America and Australia/Canada/NewZealand/UK as anglophone nations than it does with the Towering Babel (TB) that is the EU. Arise George Orwell's Oceania!

Being part of the EU will destroy Ireland's sovereignty and it's uniqueness.

Do you really think they will do that George? They love it so much they are willing to leave the country in their tens of thousands to make room for more.

GeorgeDillon, this has nothing to do with Mass Immigration. It's an EU Financial Treaty standardizing finances across the European Union. You're like an old 78 record, stuck in one grove and incapable of moving on.

This is a good opportunity for Irish people to follow their fellow-Europeans in France, Holland etc. and Vote NO to Mass Immigration!
