Message for the Irish Referendum

Athens, Friday, 13 June 2008

Comhghairdeachas!!


Dear comrades

Warm congratulations to the working class, the small farmers, the youngsters and women, to all working people of the cities, of the rural areas, of the sea for the strong NO vote to the Lisbon Treaty.

The people of Ireland gave a proud response to the blackmails, the threats and pressures extended by the dominant forces, the big capital, the political elites, the representatives of plutocracy, the EU bureaucracy.

A significant step forward has been done that indicates that the working people are not willing to surrender their rights and future for the sake of the interests of the monopolies, militarism and imperialist institutions.

The peoples should beware of the efforts of the ruling classes to mislead them. There can be no other, “better” version of this –twice rejected- treaty. No “progressive”, pro-people, treaty can be drafted for a reactionary and imperialist Union of the big capital.

We kindly ask you to convey our congratulations to your members and friends for their contribution to this great battle and this result that represents a major victory for all the workers and the peoples of the European Union countries, it sends message of optimism to all people across the world!
