"€24m to tropical paradise
€24m of EU funding has been made available over the next seven years for hotels in French Caribbean island of Guadaloupe, to be used in renovation and improvement work, including the construction of swimming pools"


I guess all those politicians will need somewhere safe to hoilday once they've finally driven us all into servitude.

I do a lot of work with the European Commission.
I can vouch for their incompetence.

It's evil. The very most evil thing to happen. A united Europe? Do me a favour, we all hate each other. A gravy train, nothing more, nothing less.

I voted evil - but I think the more correct term would be 'criminal'. I don't think that most people involved in the various European quangoes are innately evil - but their wasting of my money and their endless meddling rules are certainly bloody annoying and undesirable.

Incompetent to the extreme. There may be a few with good ideas and intentions,but that that is all lost in the buffoonery that is the EU. I wouldn't say it was evil but agree with it being criminally incompetent.

They are cooking the books to line their own nests. If they were doing it properly, it would be hidden and almost impossable to find.

Therefore they are both evil and incompetant.

For keeping the peace between member states and saving millions of lives - priceless.

For everything else there's the taxpayer.
