But it would seem to be the democracy you all signed up for...

What will the EU do about the 'Irish Problem', and will the action the EU takes be- in your opinion- democratic and abiding by the constitution?

Either you give people a vote, or you dont- If you give them a vote and they dont vote the way you want and you go ahead and ignore it- is that really democracy?
