Our adversaries, lead by financial capital and neo-liberal doctrine, try to definitely set the previous (…)

No to the proposed European constitution ! Solidarity with the French left’s campaign to vote "No" !
10 May 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
22 commentsThe proposed European constitution, adopted by EU member states on 18 June 2004 and currently being subjected to various types of ratification in countries across the EU, is a danger to democracy. It is an attempt to impose a socially destructive and economically neo-liberal order on a European scale.
If the constitution is adopted, life for those living in the EU will be increasingly subjected to the laws of the free market and governed by institutions which defy any form of popular (…) -

Chirac asks France to OK constitution
15 April 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
8 commentsIn 13 consecutive opinion polls in the past month, French voters have said that they are planning to reject the EU constitution in a referendum on 29 May.

This would also deal a near-fatal blow to the continent’s bold unification ambitions.
A French rejection would all but destroy the charter - which European leaders agreed on five months ago after years of (…)
