A quote from The Sun, 20 December 2007

Gordon Brown was embarrassed by his own troops last night as the Scottish Parliament demanded a referendum on the EU Treaty. Labour’s members north of the border abstained on a vote calling for a nationwide poll, allowing it to go through. […]

The Scottish defiance was largely a symbolic gesture as they have no power to dictate Mr Brown’s policy. But pressure for a Scots-only poll will almost certainly grow. […] The SNP, which controls Scotland, deliberately called the vote to rattle the PM, whose seat is in Fife.

 
A quote from The Northern Echo, 19 December 2007

The village [of Hornby in North Yorkshire] decided to have its own say on the treaty, with a poll which asked whether the Government should hold a referendum over the reforms. […]

In Hornby, however, arrangements were much more straightforward, with 55 residents cramming into a makeshift polling station in the restaurant of their local pub, the Grange Arms, to have a say […], with 46 voting in favour of a referendum and nine against.

 
A quote from EUobserver, 20 December 2007

The idea that future EU enlargements should be submitted to a popular vote in France has been dropped in a draft bill aimed at reforming the country's constitution. According to the bill submitted by the French government on Wednesday (19 December), Paris' ratification of new EU memberships could be done either by popular vote or by the French "Congress" […] It will be up to the President of the Republic to decide on the method of ratification.
