The EU makes a law nobody likes (HTF did Brussels pass it then?)


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?


Regulations don’t have to be voted thru.

Surely not all MEPs are Kippers who don't turn up or
deliberately vote against their constituent's interests?


Regulations don’t have to get thru the EP.

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


Then nothing would get passed.


Regulations don’t have to be passed, just proclaimed.

No matter what the EU proposes, the majority
of the UK press would be against it.
