Should the mini-treaty be adopted through a referendum?

The daily considers that a referendum is necessary in the Netherlands. "Ratification from the electorate can provide the legitimacy that this new treaty is still lacking. By playing the referendum card, the PvdA labour movement and the VVD liberals can also isolate the only opponents to this new treaty, who are the SP socialists and the PVV conservatives. These two parties, albeit utterly opposed on all other matters could then form an opportune coalition to lead voters to vote no. If the PvdA and the VVD want above all to avoid the little risk of a new test facing voters, they will have to foot the bill in the next elections."
