Myth #1 The EU Consitution will actually have any significance other than being a mealy mouthed restating of the status quo, while simultaneously being an example of European mass bureaucratic mastrubation which I'm told (in MT144 threads) is popular in Europe."Wait a minute..this isn''t FAUX dive, it's just a DIVE!"

The #1 myth is that the people of Europe actually wants this. In Spain, by far the most EU-friendly country in Europe, only half the population bothered turning up to vote wether or not Spain would agree to the constitution...I love being beaten by women - LorizaelComment

Seriously, there's one myth that seriously irks me, and that I've heard often as a justification for the Yes.
"To repell the Constitution would spell the end of the EU".
This statement is patently false, many people believe it, and for many it's the main argument for voting in favour. Even if I was in favour of the constitution (which I was until recently), I would be disheartened that the most convincing argument for my fellows would be a lie based on fearmongering."I have been reading up on the universe and have come to the conclusion that the universe is a good thing." -- Dissident
