If I could pick an image to represent the choice for Ireland on the enlargement question, it would be this. Faced with a unique choice at this critical time and as the last to make this choice, will we, the people – not we, the politicians – choose to remove the last brick from the Berlin Wall or will we go back to an older Ireland which, while it can no longer work, continues to have charms and history, take the booty, climb into the round tower, pull up the ladder and close the door? There was a time when that worked, this is not it. We have that choice as a people and I believe we will choose wisely.
