To say that European Union leaders signed nothing at their summit in Brussels is not strictly true.
Whether they knew it or not, most of the leaders did actually put their names to a constitution, although they probably thought they were signing someone's autograph book.
An unknown man, who faithfully waited for the arrival of the leaders, successfully got most member countries, including Spain, to sign what lookedlike an official copy of a treaty.
Those who signed are probably hoping it was all just a joke, especially as there was no time to read the small print.
The motives and identity of the mystery signature collector, and the intended use of his carefully prepared document, remain unclear.
