Ganley confirms return to Lisbon debate

Saturday September 12 2009

Declan Ganley, the Chairman of the Libertas Party, has officially confirmed that he is to campaign a second time for a no vote in the Lisbon Treaty Referendum.

Last June Declan Ganley said he was bowing out of public life after failing to win a seat in the Ireland North West Constituency in the European Elections.

Speaking in Ballinasloe, he said this Treaty will reduce Ireland's influence in Europe.

He dismissed the line being pushed that Ireland will suffer economically if we vote yes.

He quoted the Wall Street journal and said corporate America does not require a yes vote to decide where to invest.

Declan Ganley will speak in greater detail about his no to Lisbon campaign at a press conference in Dublin tomorrow.
