The BBC has comments on the Dutch vote:
I live in Amsterdam and have done [for] the past four years. My girlfriend, a Dutch lawyer, was in the dressing room of a department store the other day when she overheard two shop assistants. One saying to the other “Which way are you voting?”. “I’m going to vote No” says the second. First: “Why?” Second:” Because everyone wants us to vote Yes”. This is the mentality we are dealing with here. Simon Goetzel, Amsterdam
The voters, like these silly shop assistants, have proved themselves unworthy of the high ideals of the politicians. They’ve forfeited the confidence of all right-thinking people, and should be dissolved.
