lpv:translated text	"Mr President, on 28 September last year the Danes plainly said ‘no’ to the euro. Last Thursday, the Irish unequivocally rejected the Treaty of Nice. That means the people of the only two countries that have been directly consulted have expressed, with equal force, the growing dissatisfaction of all European citizens with a Europe that is tending more and more to treat its constituent nations simply as remote colonies. Alas, as happened after the Danish referendum, the Union is loftily ignoring the message sent out by the people of Europe. I wonder how long the President of Parliament and the President of the Commission think they can go on founding their Europe on contempt for the people, whom they treat as nobody would dare to treat children today? The Gothenburg Summit, to be held only six months after the Nice Summit, will have to take note of the Irish vote and the fact that the Irish people have exercised the sovereign right of veto that the governments did not dare to exercise in Nice. It will therefore have to declare the treaty null and void, failing which the people will regard Europe as an alien enterprise and will soon see it as their enemy."@en1
