Few Europeans realise just how deep the EU is digging its smelly fingers into every aspect of life. Here's an example: they are currently standardising the format of the parking discs that we put in our car windows so that every EU nation has the same ones. A small but interesting example of how these megalomaniacs think.
Agreed, Ian. That took immense moral courage and probably gave our civilisation another century of life! :) You'll be pleased to know that the EU commission has also decided what colour police uniforms should be within member states. Cometh the hour, cometh the men (and women)!

My favorite thing was the news story around 2005 when the EU standardized the acceptable amount of curvature in bananas.
