". The constitution should be rejected. We need a new constitution, not just a new name. A fundamental revision is needed which, like a constitution in the normal sense, limits and clarifies the powers of the European Court of Justice and the role of the EU. It is important to define which matters are of a supranational nature, i.e. matters such as free trade, climate change, the fight against international crime, terrorism, and integration. It is notable that in all these areas Britain has been a driving force throughout the development of the EU. My view is that Sweden should demand the same exceptions Britain was given, both its opt-in and its opt-out clauses. There is no reason to treat Sweden any differently. Sweden’s citizens have voted ‘no’ to the euro and it would only be reasonable for the next treaty to make clear that Sweden is not required to participate in monetary cooperation. None of this can be found in the current proposal, which is why I have chosen to vote against the report."@en1
