"Realistically, though, this is not how the EU works. We
have been here before, after all. When Denmark voted against
Maastricht, when Ireland voted against Nice — and, for that
matter, when the markets voted against the ERM — the EU’s
response was to carry on regardless. There is no Plan B in
Brussels; Plan A is simply resubmitted over and over again
until it is accepted.

Something similar will happen with the constitution. The
heads of government will make soothing noises about
addressing the voters’ concerns, then call a new
intergovernmental conference and ram through 95 per cent of
what they were proposing under the constitution. This time,
though, there will be no referendums. No one will repeat
that mistake — certainly not Tony Blair."
