The constitution requires support from all 25 EU member states and a rejection from an major member such as France could scuttle the constitional project and breed political uncertainty throughout the EU. The latest opinion poll shows the French "no" campaign in the lead with 54 percent of the vote, an increase of 4 percent from just ten days ago. Expatica has more. Link |
