Five Reasons to Vote YES in referendum on the European Stability treaty-2012

(1) If you want to help save the Euro Vote YES. A NO vote in Ireland will have serious implications for the value of the currency in your pocket. This is part of a process to save our currency-The Euro. It is essential that we vote YES.

(2) If we vote NO we will be unable to access funds from the EU in the likely event that we can’t borrow on the bond markets. If we vote YES we can access those funds if necessary. Remember we are running a huge BUDGET DEFICIT of 15 billion Euro. A No vote means that we will be cut off from EU funds and will result in horrific cuts ( up to 30%) in Pensions, Social Welfare, Salaries, Health and Education in 2014 as we will be short 15 billion Euro to fund them . The collapse in purchasing power would spill into retail and the general economy and lead to job losses in the HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS. I do not exaggerate. If 15 billion euro is taken out at the stroke of a pen its over for Ireland. The economy will collapse in a week when our current funding runs out in 2014. It is laughable to read where the leader of a retail union is urging his members to vote NO. A NO vote will cost his members thousands of jobs in 2014 as we will be unable to fund pensions, social welfare, public service salaries, health and education. Purchasing power in the economy will drop by one third overnight in 2014 unless we vote YES. The US Chamber of Commerce in Ireland has asked for a YES vote. It has emphasized that it is essential. I have no doubt that workers in multinational companies will vote YES to safeguard their jobs. They would be mad to do otherwise. Similarly ICOS which represents the agricultural co-ops has come out strongly in favour. They have been joined by the IFA and Tourist interests. The Small Firms Association is advocating a YES vote. They represent 200000 small businesses and 655000 jobs.

(3) Much has been made of the fact that we could vote NO and access funding from the IMF. This is not a solution in the event of a NO vote as the IMF would not be prepared to fully fund Ireland. In addition there would be currency complications in the event of a fall in the value of the Euro. The IMF requires a large EU contribution. This would not be available if we vote NO. Yet Sinn Fein and the ULA persist with this nonsense.

(4) This Treaty if adhered to will ensure fiscal discipline by Euro governments which has been sadly lacking in many cases. This is in Ireland’s interest.

(5) Sinn Fein and ULA have failed to provide a workable alternative. Polemics and scare mongering by the Left are no substitute for policy.

Beautiful: Pro-Life Poem from baby to mother says "I'm sad you'll never get to see my face".

Mother what is this I hear you say, If I could talk I’d tell you it’s okay I may not be born yet but I have ears I’m only young but can sense your fears

I cannot see you yet but I do have eyes. Mother I hate to hear your lonely cries. I know you’re feeling afraid and sad, I know your plan makes you feel bad.

But don’t feel bad mother please don’t cry, I understand that you’ve been told a lie All in the name of your choice and right, my life is destined to lose its fight

I wish that I could make you see that life will work out fine with me They’ve told you that this is not the case, I’m sad you’ll never get to see my face

But in the end I’ll be okay , it’s you I worry about when I’m taken away You may feel pain in your body and soul, what has happened to you is bound to take its toll

Despite all this mother you now have a mission, to tell your story and make them listen To tell them how you’ll never forget, how you feel now and how you regret

I hope that in some way you can be strong, to say the words abortion is wrong To say you know because you were there , you saw first hand the lack of care

The lack of compassion , the lack of joy and how you found out that I was a boy I’m not saying this to make you feel bad, I’m okay now mother it’s for you I feel sad

I know that everyday you feel sorry, but you are forgiven so do not worry If you can warn mothers about what you’ve gone through, you may have the power to save a life too.

Ireland:American Chamber of Commerce Ireland calls for YES vote in referendum

Why Vote Yes:

A Yes vote is another important step on the road to economic recovery.
A Yes vote, above all else provides Stability. Stability in terms of the nation's finances; on Ireland's ongoing role as a committed member of the Eurozone and in terms of our commitment to following a defined path to recovery. This stability is a prerequisite for global corporations making strategic investment decisions and will help protect Ireland's reputation as the preferred gateway to the European market for overseas investors.
Ireland is the gateway to Europe for over 600 US businesses. These companies have invested $190 billion here and provide valuable employment to 100,000 people.
It is vital that we maintain international confidence in Ireland's position at the heart of Europe and our market access to 500 million people.

Yes Vote on the Fiscal Compact Treaty will:

Voice Ireland's on-going commitment to Europe
Organise the Eurozone economy in a way that is 'pro-growth'
Tell investors that Ireland will remain a Gateway to Europe
Encourage fiscal responsibility for Eurozone governments
Yield further investor certainty with access to the €500b European Stability Mechanism
Ensure confidence in Ireland's ability to restore growth
Safeguard Ireland's economy against future economic downturns
