The Irish will once more vote in a referendum on the Treaty of Lisbon today, Friday. The Treaty can only go into force once it has been ratified by all 27 EU member states. In the first referendum in June 2008, 53 percent of the Irish electorate said 'no' to the EU Reform Treaty, and things look just as close today. The European press speculates on the outcome of the second Irish referendum and the repercussions it could have.
