Well, I didn't vote for our current government...
Anyway, our prime minister is so arrogant that he wouldn't even confirm to the press that the current meetings with the other european politicians about this new treaty would result in a referendum about the new treaty. Which normally is the issue, according to the Danish constitution, when giving up suverainity (spelling)...
I think, sometimes the politicians forget, they are the representatives of the people = all the people, and as such should consult the people more often about what to do about major issues. Sometimes they act like the monarchs of past centuries...
Okay, back to topic: the Poles which I know here in Denmark, exchange students, would probably laugh in the faces of their current leaders. But sadly, those two twins are in power, because a majority of the Polish voters elected them... and this is sometimes the bad part of democracy! Oh well, a new election will come up again and we get a new opportunity to kick these types out of office again...
