Politicians sharply disagree about the constitution - about how much it changes, and whether it is good or bad.
Some see it as a missed opportunity to build a United States of Europe, while others complain it does precisely that. Much depends on how it is implemented. For example, the European Council president could become a new force for EU integration - or just a figurehead. Equally, the impact of the Charter of Fundamental Rights may hinge on rulings by the European Court of Justice.
