James Reynolds (Farmers For No) speaking on the Lisbon Treaty.
FARMERS FOR NO: Farmers urging farmers to vote No to the Lisbon Treaty in the re-run referendum. Defending agriculture, working to protect jobs and rural communities.

The FARMERS FOR NO organisation has 50 members who believe the Lisbon treaty puts the future of Irish farming in jeopardy. They say it will weaken the voice of Irish farmers in the EU and have criticised the IFA for advocating a 'yes' vote.
The group also says it has concerns about the EU's stance in WTO negotiations, as well as the future of farm subsidies under the Common Agriculture Policy.
