    Great news! Although I would imagine some Poles m ustbe a bit p:ssed that he let a vote in Ireland dictate his signing of the treaty after it had already gone trough the polish democratic process.

    Yeah but he was waiting for the outcome of the Irish referendum. As I think the Dail ratification is (dare I say) practically a given.

    Georgia must be let into the EU

    Is this polish guy crazy? OR does he actually fancy his chances against Russia?

    Well hopefully some european leader disagrees with him...

    EU membership didn't move to QMV, I hope.

    Damn shame every copy of the treaty text and all explanatory websites were deleted from the web the day after the referendum, then.

    New states joining must sign an Accession Treaty with each member state, and each member state state must ratify it separately. The enlargement process is in this sense not taken through the EU structure. How the EU works 101.
