But that was unacceptable to the EU, so they were told to think again, so in response to the statement my point was, well, yes they can, unless they make the wrong decision.

If they had said no again do you think it would have ended there? That would have put a stop the whole European project. We didn't even get a choice to vote on it.

No, they would have gone back, again and again until they got the answer they wanted.

It's happened twice in Ireland and once in Denmark. That was the parallel I was making.

But we digress.

As it seems to be via the SNP in Scotland , the minority government's in most countries use this tool to push there agenda . Nothing new
