Britain & the EU - What's Happening?

Another fact on the EU.
Most of the politicians elected to the European Parliament have failed in their own parliaments..... witness the Kinnocks, ex-leader of the Labour Party and his wife, now reputedly enjoying millionaire status at the expense of the taxpayer. Can anyone think of a single thing that they and others have done to actually earn this?

I can't.

Ah, the aptly named Neil Pillock.

Dave hasn't mentioned the unratified EU expense account.

The media took the lid off this a little while ago, the EU pays MEPs whatever they ask for in expenses, so it transpires all and sundry claim first class everything but actually go steerage and B&B, the difference gets pocketed untaxed.

EU egg on face took on the proportions of the EU egg and butter mountain, so generated to keep the supply down and price high.

Did they change anything?

Did they buggery.

All aboard the talking-shop gravy train, fill your boots.
