dunno


look at the history of the "Olive oil regulations and inspections
regulation" to see how a law that nobody wanted got within a whisker of
being implemented.


If nobody wanted it, HTF would it have got voted through? Surely not all
MEPs are Kippers who don't turn up or deliberately vote against their
constituent's interests?

If the press hadn't have picked up on it it would have made it over the
finishing line


Then nothing would get passed. No matter what the EU proposes, the
majority of the UK press would be against it.
