Jenkins: A French Yes Vote ( on EU) Lets Britain Go to Plan C
Simon Jenkins of The Times Online of London opined May 22, 2005 that, We should all pray for the French to vote yes in next weeks European referendum. Britons should go down on their knees and beg for it. A French yes is vital if the British nation is to express a national view on the new constitution and throw it out. Only then might Europe get an economic treaty fit enough and lean enough for the new world economy.
Mr. Jenkins said, "whenever a politician says there is no plan B you can be sure he is lying. There is always a plan B, especially when plan A (a French yes) is plainly in trouble. The question for Britain is whether the plan B now being canvassed in Paris, Brussels and London is any good," he added. Read more here.
