People’s Movement Picket: We want a referendum on the ESM

category dublin | eu | event notice author Saturday June 16, 2012 11:44author by pat c Report this post to the editors

People’s Movement Picket

We want a referendum on the ESM!

Veto the amendment to Article 136!

1:30 on Tuesday 19th June outside Dail Eireann
(Kildare St. entrance)

Having taken a breather following the referendum campaign, we’re back, with a picket outside the Dail for half an hour on Tuesday next commencing at 1:30 sharp. So please turn up on time if at all possible as we need the maximum number at 1:30.

On Tuesday, the Dail will debate the European Communities Bill with the intention of approving the amendment to Article 136 of the EU treaties (TFEU). This is the amendment on which the government could exercise a veto – for example, in order to extract concessions on the bail-out loan.

On Tuesday also, Thomas Pringle commences his case in the High Court at 10:30, challenging the constitutionality of approving this amendment and of adopting the ESM (European Stability Mechanism), a measure which the government plans to enact on Wednesday next. The public can attend the court proceedings.

Our picket will call for the government to exercise the veto on the amendment to Article 136 and to hold a referendum on the ESM. Our reasons for the latter call may be found in our pamphlet at http://www.people.ie/eu/esmref2.pdf

Please do your best to turn up – if even for a short period.

Placards will be provided
