Should anyone want to actually watch that Lisbon Treaty debate and vote that I mentioned the BBC though unimportant then you can do so here. Apparently the European Parliament, in typically democratic style has launched a massive security operation to shut down any protests. This has even gone so far as ITV news apparently being concerned of threats to have their cameras/tapes confiscated if they filmed any of the protests.
Update: Have just been told that the security are now threatening to arrest people in the building for wearing t-shirts with "Too chicken for a Referendum" on them. Praise be for democracy and freedom in action!

I note that the broadcast is only available in Windows Media Player though.
That'll delight the Linux fanboys.
errr I'm watching it in Linux. It's just a codec.
European Parliament. Democracy. Sorry, I don't see the connection.
And we have the audacity to denounce the Burmese government.....
