Poll on EU constitution
Spencer Pitfield, prospective Conservative Party candidate for Penistone and Stocksbridge, is calling for people in the new constituency, which also includes Ecclesfield and Dodworth, to take part in the "referendum".
The proposed EU Constit-ution - renamed the EU Reform Treaty - gives Brussels greater power over law and order and foreign affairs, and removes a large number of vetoes which allow member states to block policies they don't agree with.
