Oh that would be so sad. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
All on his own!
What mattered with the Constitution was the symbolic significance, the political momentum, and the expected choice put to the Brits to put up or shut up.
We have none of these in this case. Sure, there are good things on the substance (like increased powers for the Parliamen), but it's just not as important as the rest. It's been made into a non-event, which is just the way the anti-Europeans want it in order to keep the EU powerful enough for their pro-corporate backroom deals to happen, powerless for real change, and a convenient scapegoat unable to fight back. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes

Time to change all this for the better. Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
