What the EU ‘didn’t’ do for you in 2010
January 5, 2011
If you were wondering what the EU actually did for you in 2010, have a look at this taxpayer-funded video released by the Commission just in time for Christmas.
“What has the EU done for you in 2010?”
On a long list of claimed achievements, such as “fair trials” and “boosting jobs”, we were struck by this claim, which was followed by flashing images of euro notes and a euro symbol:
“Securing a sound economy and stronger financial markets”
Can this really be serious? Of all the years to spin this line they chose 2010 – the year when the flawed construct if the Single Currency nearly brought the entire European economy to its knees, forcing multi-billion euro bail-outs.
Or maybe they just got this mixed up with the EU’s wish list for Santa. While they are at it, why don’t they just say world peace?
