The French say"non"
The French have voted NO to a european constitution. Hurrah to the French. As one of the advocates of europinism( ie france gov), this is a real blow to the fools who think that there will be a united europe.
What a dead donkey.
Same goes For a euro defence force,
Without the Brits, there will be no stability in "europe" (I will not use capitals where europe is concerned.)
Respect to the French for voting "NON"
Exleckie.
Unleash hell.

damn right. currently enjoying a £20 bottle of French rouge to celibrate this momentous occasion. This will not only be a crushing blow for Brussels, but for that tosser Blair and all his cronies, as they are due to take the helm in europe in six months time. Rather embarrassing seeing as we havent even held a vote do you not think? No wonder that coward wants to leave the UK leadership. Not content with royally screwing our economy, he wants his filthy hands on the other 20 odd member states now.

I think the French people gave this matter a great deal of thought. It seems the majority of 'no' voters rejected the EU Constitution on the grounds that it was too capitalistic and undermined traditional French levels of social protection.
Ironic really, as the rejection of capitalism and the virtues of the French aren't things that are normally celebrated in this Forum. But then, it appears some people here can be blissfully hypocritical and unprincipled, so long as it furthers the cause of Eurobashing.

Allons citoyens de l'Europe
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Cette constitution cyclope
Abandonne tout aux Marchés (bis)
Entendez-vous dans nos campagnes
Mugir ces ultra-libéraux
Vautours des paradis fiscaux
Ils licencient vos fils vos compagnes
Refrain:
Ensemble citoyens
Changeons de direction
Votons, NON, NON
Une autre Europe
Dépend de notre NON
Nous voulons une Europe sociale
Visant le développement humain
Empêchant le dumping fiscal
Et construisant les biens communs (bis)
Chassons les profiteurs cyniques
Qui rient des inégalités
Encourageons la gratuité
Améliorons les services publics
Vive une Europe politique
Avec plusieurs cercles distincts
Vive une Europe démocratique
Au service des citoyens (bis)
Sortons du piège ultra-libéral
Chantages, Délocalisations
Faisons de la coopération
Le vrai ferment du progrès social
Nous voulons être solidaires
Pas de féroces concurrents
Nous abolirons la misère
Nous sommes interdépendants (bis)
Nous n'avons qu'une seule Terre
Dégradée par la pollution
Cessons sa marchandisation
Avant qu'elle ne devienne un enfer

¿Qué? is actually Spanish, amigo. En français, on dit "Quoi?".
My French was last used pendant les GCE 'O' level examinations de 1965!, so est plus qu' un morceau rouillé!
Try cutting and pasting into Word, then 'Tools, language, translate' and do a web translation. Not perfect, but will give you the right idea!
Salut!

MrBernoulli,
Cat amongst he pigeons oh yes indeed. No doubt Prime Sinister B.Liar and his henchmen are cooking up ideas to force us into europe as we speak.
Incidentally, I am pro europe but in the sense that France should be France, GB should be GB, Spain should Spain etc and not part of a federal state.
By the way, why is B.Liar so intent on this eu superstate when he went through the process of devolution for Scotland and Wales? It doesn't make sense.
the guy is a menace to our way of life.
Once again, well done France
, I will just sit back now and watch the pro superstate brigade try to breathe life into this corpse.

Beagle - All together now
Goes really well to La Marseillaise sung a' Cappella after copious quantities of Burgundy, Bon Appetit.
Who said the French don't do bottle, here's one in the eye for the slush farm for corrupt, discredited crony funded ex-politicians a' la "Mandy", and the like.
Now if we can only get this clapped out government to do the honourable thing and self distruct.
Vive l' Independence, Vive L' Solidarity, Vive La France.
Mon Dieu, the French are revolting
a' tout alors

C'est une décision magnifique! Vive la République Francais! Et, pour la Grande Bretagne, Dieu sauvent la Reine et règnent Britainnia!
Mon Français est faible, je suis désolé.
Tony Blair doit démissionner immédiatement. J'espère que nous trouverons un meilleur futur pour l'Europe. Un futur qui permet à chaque nation sa liberté.

1) The french vote has not much to do with the constitution but with the french government.
2) Can't see why a united Europe is such a bad thing.
3) The so called constitution is an attempt to make the current EU managable. Can't see why it is a good thing to have an unmanageable mess.
4) Involving the people in the constitution making process wóuld certainly have been a good idea.
5) Grow up!

President (wannabee) B.Liar will avoid the Disappointment of a UK 'NO' vote, simply by deciding that if the German government can do without a referendum, it will be fair enough for the UK government to vote on the UK poulations behalf.
I wonder what how many referenda the French will hold until they get a 'OUI' vote.
But for the moment 'Viva La France'

Yes, well done indeed to the French for seeing through this crock of $hite! Just saw Bliar on TV - not looking very happy. And talking total bolleaux (as usual). I really hope that we'll get a referendum on this - another opportunity to tell Bliar to get stuffed!
The original vision of the EU was fine; however, moves towards the wholly ersatz People's European Republic are repellant. Particularly with Bliar as El Presidente.....
And here's just one reason why Eurocracy needs a huge kick up the ar$e:
"B-17 Flypast at Madingley cancelled
Eurocharges keep Sally B grounded
It is with the greatest regret that in the absence to date of an exemption to the European regulation that puts the B-17 into the weight category of an airliner, boosting its insurance by an unaffordable 500 per cent, it will not be possible for Sally B to participate in the official Memorial Day flypast over Madingley
For the past thirty years, this has been this B-17’s most important and poignant annual engagement, carried out in honour of the 79,000 Allied airmen who lost their lives fighting for our freedom in the Second World War.
We are devastated not to be able to pay tribute to all those young men, especially in this 60th Anniversary of the end of the War. The idea that the aircraft that flew to liberate Europe and now flies in honour of all those young men who gave their lives for that cause, should be put out of action by the very people who owe their freedom to its existence, simply beggars belief.
We remain hopeful that a way can be found through this illogical and unjust law, so that Sally B’s 30th Anniversary season in this country might not be her last. "
Words fail me...........

Just driving around for the last few weeks in this area of the Midi Pyrenees it was evident from the number and size of the "Non" posters that it was exceedingly unlikely that Government would get the result it wanted.
In addition, changes are being implemented in the French Health System which will remove the ability of patients to consult as many doctors as they like. All residents will have to register with a single Doctor by 1 July. There is a great deal of suppressed anger over this.

Suspicion breeds confidence
Beags has again taken my words once again. I think we can all relax for a while and take pat on the back that this euro crap won't take our nationality currency and identity away for now at least. Now we can assume that they will continue to try. The parasite Blair and his co parasites won't give up that easily. Be on your guard and enjoy the good news. Don’t trust this odious liar man any further than you can throw him.

It was amusing listening to Bill Cash talking to a French Europhobe in Paris the other morning. The reasons for their NON stance were exactly the opposite of Cash's NO argument.
BEagle , your version of the Marseillaise is super. I will send it on to my daughter who married a frog and teaches English in French primary schools. Do not denigrate your 'O' Level French; my daughter had to spend a fair amount of time sorting out her "Chéries' " grammaire français before they can tackle any Anglais
Do not despair. Out of all this may materialise what most people want: a free trade area encompassing the present membership of the EU and a very much reduced central secretariat to help coordinate policy. No more.
Much as I love the Turks, they will never be "European" in culture or values, and should never be allowed to have a powerful influence on the laws and institutions of "Europe".

Regrettably not my version of La Marseilleise, FV, it's just something I came across recently!
