Lots of information and debate on the Nice Treaty and the issues surrounding it is passing through Indymedia Ireland as the National ‘debate’ approaches it’s conclusion. Interestingly there has yet to be a post on Indymedia arguing in favour of a Yes Vote. Here is a selection of recent posts covering a plethora of issues.

The CampaignTrade Unionists against Nice, ETUC position on the Nice Treaty, A Call to Action on Nice (includes comprehensive list of media contacts), League table of leaflets distributed by various No campaigns, Who butchered the Referendum Commission? , Who has the best Posters?, Comments on Opinion Polls, Splits emerging in Labour Party on Nice line, Justin Barrett and his links with Neo-Nazis, SIPTU Dublin Regional Conference calls for a No vote, Dail asked to interpret 'Irish NO vote' if Nice Treaty rejected, Anti-racist no campaigners outraged by media smears , Article 133 Information Group Open Letter .

Nice update
Despite the issue of Article 133 and its relationship to GATS finally getting some airing, 1 2 3 the Treaty of Nice was passed. This has lead to a lively debate on the Newswire: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
