An interesting article in the Mail this morning.



"The final objection to the Lisbon Treaty was removed yesterday.

Czech President Valcav Klaus had been demanding an opt-out from a charter of fundamental rights to sheild his countrymen from property claims from ethnic Germans who were expelled after the Second World War.

After negotiations with Sweden, which holds the EU presidency until the end of the year, it seems that a solution had been found. The details however was not made public"



Well that was a quickly negotiated solution doesn't take them long if they want something or the EU are under threat.

The present government in the UK doesn't agree with 'opt outs' it seems. Just craven acceptance of all EU law.
