I worry about the holding of a referendum on the treaty – this applied to the Single European Act, the Maastricht treaty, the Treaty of Nice and the Amsterdam treaty – because it is so easy to confuse the public. When the public is faced with a long complicated question, it sometimes tends to vote on the basis of how the economy is performing, how favourably it looks on the Government or who puts the question rather than what is the question. However, we must accept this aspect.
