Live blogging on Luxembourg EU referendum 10 July
As we noted before:

If even in a country where jobs are much more dependent on EU bureaucracy and offshore banking than anywhere else, the people vote No to the constitutional treaty, than it is dead in the water anywhere.
On the evening (Central European time) of Sunday 10 July, on my main blog, there will be live blogging on the Luxembourg referendum results.
If there is downtime or another problem at ModBlog, then the live blogging will be here, at my backup blog: here.
