If we are looking for an armes free world then the Mr De Rossi has some very important points in the spending $$ for weapons for our enemies better to re direct the priorties. Peace has to start somewhere not progressing the arms race.

How many EU electors have actually read the Treaty of Lisbon? Simply holding a bias against a Treaty when whom as not actually read it. Is not a vaild opinion. Base a judgment/vote on evidance-base, not on gossip or bias. Referenudum sys is a good as long, the electors are give facts without bias, on politcal parties influence on voters. However i am studying Treaty without bias, until i have completed my study i without my judgment. Thank u

I think the moderator stepped out of her role as mediator. She is suppose to make a summary of the debators rebuttle, but she is debating herself. To me is bias.

Re-read our treaty tom, the treat can not be self ameanded without our consent. "Vote No" thats just a retarded arugement, lisbon makes the EU MORE democratic, fights lcimate change, international crime, provides for cheaper engery, protect irish citzen abaord!
