Bit of a shocker in the Times a couple of days ago, which refers to:

"a constitution that would have institutionalised the poverty of the vulnerable and provided bragging rights for a sanctimonious élite."

That's it. No attempt at argument, no analysis or discussion, just that. Trashing the EU constitution with a few empty soundbites is something I've come to expect from Eurosceptic campaigners, but it has no place in a Times leader.
