Carol Kambites, a Regional Officer of the South West Green party who lives in Stonehouse, said the British people must have the right to vote on whether to adopt the proposed EU Reform Treaty - in line with previous Government commitments. She said: “The proposed EU Reform Treaty is substantially the same document as the EU Constitution, on which Tony Blair promised the British people a referendum. But now Gordon Brown wants to deny us a say on whether to adopt it or not – and that’s fundamentally undemocratic, whatever you think about the rights or wrongs of the treaty.”
