ALDE calls for end to procrastination on Lisbon Treaty5.36.00pm BST (GMT +0100) Wed 6th May 2009
The Czech Senate finally ratified the Lisbon Treaty today by the required 3/5ths majority, but it does not appear to have put an end to the filibustering that is causing a major headache for EU lawyers trying to shed light on the transition this autumn to a new European Commission and Parliament.

What we need now is clarity, not more confusion."
