| | EU Supporters Relieved As French Socialists Vote Yes |
| | Mr Fabius conceded yesterday "with great regret" that he had lost his fight, although some of his supporters insisted that many party members did not really support the treaty but had voted yes because they feared the alternative would irreparably split the party. | | | He is a witty and well-liked party first secretary, despite having no government experience. | | | "It would have been embarrassing for everyone if the French Socialists had said no," he said, adding that the vote should help Tony Blair convince British voters to approve the treaty. |
