Whichever way Ireland votes the EU is still here, and Irelands's still a member, and on balance that's better for everyone.

The things that need changing will still be there - I don't knowm any reason to think that a No vote would make it any easier getting that done, very likely the reverse.

No good saying "don't trust the politicians who say it's good" - why should anyone sooner trust the other politicians who say it's bad?

I look around and see the papers and the public figures who'll be delighted if Ireland votes "No", and I intensely dislike what I see, probabaly even more than the ones who will be delighted if the vote is "Yes".
