- I don't know if ye've been discussing the legal ins and outs of the extra tacked-on bits to the Treaty but isn't there ground that the whole ratification process will need to be gone through again by all member states ? Even if the guarantees were enough for some, for others it might be the case that they needed to argue that the entire re-ratification process should have to be gone through again. That's very awkward.
What we're getting are guarantees, which will be turned into treaty amendments after Lisbon, since otherwise the whole thing has indeed to be done over by everybody...

Sure - it's always been easy to
propose "simple solutions" to complex problems. The problem is that complex problems usually don't
have simple solutions.
What's the proverb? For every complex problem there is a solution that is simple, obvious, and
wrong.
