This isnt advise, its just an idea. For those fans of this page who see the error in the Presidents recent decision, Write a letter to him and let him know, This is what I am writing with the usual salutations at the start. but put it into your own words, (but leave the quotes from the Constitution intact, they describe your rights and Authority to do this.) Get it notarised by a notary public before you send it, and send one to your T.D. Ill provide a link to notary public offices around Ireland Dear Mr President. It is with the greatest respect for your position and the function it fills, as well as the admiration for the wonderful job you have done while representing We the people on the international stage, that I write to you today. Your great debts of knowledge and respect for the battles and sacrifices of our founding fathers, filled me with confidence that you would administer affairs on the peoples behalf with the spirit of our founding fathers at heart,.and that we had made the right decision when electing you. However your latest decision to sign the water act into statute books, calls that respect for our founding fathers wisdom and their design for the Irish Nation into question You seem to have rejected the wisdom they showed. I dont protest the decision you made. I Reject it. Please understand the difference. A misconception has circulated in the Dail that people were protesting the water charges for the water that we already own. We The People were not protesting and thereby giving permission but reserving our right to voice dissatisfaction. We The People were Rejecting the water charges, and thereby withdrawing our consent. . The reasons that I reject tour decision to sign the water act into the statute books are as follows Even if signed by the president If any bill or statute is repugnant to the constitution It can NOT stand. WE THE PEOPLE decided this when the constitution was written.. Thats why its known as The Republic of Ireland, not The democratic state of Ireland We, The Sovereign people decided that it is to be that way. The foresight that our founding fathers showed by crafting a constitution,, which was designed to protect the people, from that day on,.from the kind of exploitation that we had been subject to in the past. This wisdom is what seems to be missing today Heres the Wisdom I was referring to Article 1 The Irish nation hereby affirms its inalienable, indefeasible, and sovereign right to choose its own form of Government, to determine its relations with other nations, and to develop its life, political, economic and cultural, in accordance with its own genius and traditions. Article 6 1. All powers of government, legislative, executive and judicial, derive, under God, FROM THE PEOPLE, whose right it is to designate the rulers of the State and, IN FINAL APPEAL, to decide ALL QUESTIONS OF NATIONAL POLICY, according to the requirements of the common good. Article 15 4. 1° The Oireachtas shall NOT enact any law which is in any respect repugnant to this Constitution or any provision thereof. Article 15 4. 2° EVERY law enacted by the Oireachtas which is in any respect repugnant to this Constitution or to any provision thereof, shall, but to the extent only of such repugnancy, be invalid. Article 10 2. All land and all mines, minerals and waters which belonged to Saorstát Éireann immediately before the coming into operation of this Constitution belong to the State to the same extent as they then belonged to Saorstát Éireann. Article 49 1. ALL powers, functions, rights and prerogatives whatsoever exercisable in or in respect of Saorstát Éireann immediately before the 11th day of December, 1936, whether in virtue of the Constitution then in force or otherwise, by the authority in which THE EXECUTIVE POWER of Saorstát Éireann was then vested are hereby declared to BELONG TO THE PEOPLE. We the people have voiced our REJECTION of this bill time after time a As public servants and representatives of the people they dont need to assume what the will of the people is, they may take our rejection of this bill as instructions to scrap it. , or at least bring it before the people in a referendum I hereby give notice that I will be exercising MY sovereign right and authority as expressed in article 1 and articles 6 and 49 of the constitution and deny consent for this act of government to have the power of law over me. Respectfully yours ...........
