Default How many chemicals have been banned in the US for cosmetic use?

LOL Bitch slap!

Do you think the EU banned over a thousand chemicals at random?

Preemption requires some evidence does it not?


Exactly the opposite in fact. If you're the EU, and you're applying
your ridiculous 'precautionary principle', there doesn't have to be any
scientific evidence at all. It's your excuse not to need any.


So they chose them at random and no criteria was applied whatsoever? Yes
or no?


Not entirely at random. I imagine they chose only those included in
cosmetics.

Within that, it does very much look like a pin-sticking exercise.

Therefore, Norman is wrong and he hit himself with a kipper.

I rest my case.


You haven't got one to rest.
