All eyes on the French referendum but!

With the recent French Polls indicating that those who say they will vote against is growing, thus worrying the promoters of the Constitution so much that they a bussing loads of German Students across the border to warn the French people that a rejection of the constitution could lead to a German retreat back into its old history.” Which to some threaten “if you take it to its logical conclusion – “vote ‘yes’ or we’ll invade France – again”

But three days after the French have either caved into the threats or stood firm, there is the other big test, a new Dutch poll on the referendum indicates that 63% will vote against and only 37% in favour of the EU constitution. Although numbers vary between polls it seems the pollsters no longer believe a turnaround is possible and without exception predict a negative verdict on the first of June. The Dutch Government however still claims to be confident in a positive outcome.
