The idea
Why oh why do the politians in this country, when ever a law is passed in Brussels, put ribbons and bows on them?The other EEC countries look at the laws and if they like them then they are adopted, if they dont then they are quietly ignored, and if the EEC dont like it then they can lump it. But not this country, look at the fiasco with pounds and ounces, the directive was hardly dry before the jobs worths were out policing the markets and dragging shopkeepers before the courts, just for trying to earn a living. Then the politicians wonder why so many are against further intigration with Europe. Most people dont have a problem with Europe, its our public servants thats the problem
Why is it important?
Because we are a part of Europe whether we like it of not, and we will be for the forseeable future
