So why bother to hold the Referendum
Jean-Claude Juncker, the prime minister of Luxembourg and holder of the rotating EU presidency, told Le Soir newspaper in Belgium that he would act swiftly on Sunday night if France voted No.
He would appear with the head of the European Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso, and demand that all 25 EU nations complete the process of ratifying the constitution, in referendums or parliamentary votes.
But EU leaders appear to be focused on keeping the constitution alive after a possible French No so as to buy themselves more time for a political solution to the resulting crisis.
Mr Juncker said
it was essential for the EU leadership to show a united front on Sunday night, and “maintain order in the process that will unfold the morning after”.
If it’s a Yes, we will say ‘on we go’, and if it’s a No we will say ‘we continue‘, he said.
As Phillipe Esnol, Mayor, of Saint Germaine-en-Laye remarked recently
if the choice is between yes or yes why bother to hold a referendum in the first place?
