Obstrobogulous overture...


This is only the beginning. "As dramatic as Cameron's veto may seem now, I suspect it is merely one of many acts". Essential reading at Open Europe blog: following on from the very informative (and easy to understand!) report: "CONTINENTAL SHIFT: Safeguarding the UK’s financial trade in a changing Europe" [Link to pdf] earlier this week they now post "Ten myths about Cameron's EU veto". After a plethora of misquotes, misunderstandings and at times downright propaganda by others, Mats Persson sheds light and belies certain news outlets and Europhobe politicians of all hues. Well worth a read.

I've read through your comments and the links and it is all quite civilised really. Milliband eh - what's he like, fancy using Twitter. I actually thought the BBC on Thursday night was very balanced but even I got annoyed by the coverage on Saturday morning.

Well I've been frothing at the mouth...and it continues: see

On all those (plus others) go to the comments BUT...click "ALL" comments then on "most recommended", If the BBC ever read the comments on their news articles they'd be complete fuckwits not to realise they are going against the tide.
