TO VOTE, OR NOT TO VOTE

So we're going to have to vote again on October 2nd because we didn't vote Yes the last time. It's hard to decide whether we should bother voting again or if we should just say yes so we can we can get on with our lives. I still can't find anywhere to convince me fully to vote yes. All the campaign posters can tell me is "Yes to Europe, Yes to Jobs" and bringing down the minimum wage is a load of lies. All they can tell us is what Lisbon is NOT going to do for us. If we know what's it's NOT going to do then why vote yes?! If we vote no it will still NOT do the same things for us!

On the other hand I think if Fine Gael and Labour are actually joining forces with Fine Fail and The Greens to campaign a Yes vote then this Treaty must have something good to do for Ireland. I am still waiting to be fully convinced though...
