Why the Left must organize to deliver a loud NO vote on the Euro referendum

The Left needs to organize to deliver a powerful NO vote.
We may be divided about the substantive economic issues. I happen to think that the euro is part of the bankers' vision of Europe, about making corporate accounting easier, not about the Europe concerned with citizenship and rights. But you may disagree.
What we can all agree on is that we loathe Tony Blair and his destruction of the Labour Party. That we hate his foreign policy, his militarism, his brownosing of millionaires and press barons, his poodling to George Bush, his fundamental dislike of the poor, his siding with Berlusconi, Asnar, his anti-refugee policy, his crime policy, his destruction of back bench opposition, his hatred of any kind of politics he cant control or which his friends cant buy, his "anti-terrorist" legislation, his erosion of civil liberties, his neglect of public services, his smarmy face.
A NO vote on the euro referendum is a way of bashing Blair without electing the even less palatable Tories. Let us bruise his ego on this, let us shake his credibility once and for all. He is going to bet his political house on this one, and we can organize, just this once, to fuckhimup good and proper.
So vote no on the euro if you hate the war in Afghanistan, vote no on the euro if you hate our betrayal of the
palestinians, vote no if you hate the bashing of the unions, vote no if you've been section 60'd or worse by the police, vote no if your email is being read without your consent, and your phone is being tapped, vote no against poverty, vote no against globalization and capitalism, vote no to stop this New Labour machine in its trackss , vote no because you are sick of their betrayals
