Comments on: The Hungarian Presidency addresses the Culture and Education Committee 2011/01/28/the-hungarian-presidency-addresses-the-culture-and-education-committee/ London MEP European Parliament Tue, 01 Mar 2016 16:57:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Daniel Oxley 2011/01/28/the-hungarian-presidency-addresses-the-culture-and-education-committee/#comment-3903 Sun, 30 Jan 2011 18:19:12 +0000 ?p=13319#comment-3903 When the British public were first offered membership of the EU (then described as the Common Market), they were told about opportunities for trade, cheaper food prices and the ability to travel to Europe more easily.

No-one mentioned that Hungarian politicians would be interfering in our sporting arrangements for OAPs, wasting time and money with unwanted European Heritage signs, volunteerism or media pluralism. These people should just mind their own business and put their own houses in order.

It is crazy that a government which is indulging in censorship should tell others about media pluralism. We might as well ask Baroness Ashton to give a speech on The Benefits of Hard Work or ask Lord Kinnock to list his achievements in the EU.

It is high time that another referendum is held on Britain’s continued membership of the EU.

Interfering busy bodies who twitch at their net curtains and stick their uninvited noses into everyone’s business can be found in most neighbourhoods. All that can be said in their favour is that they engage in these activities on a purely voluntary basis with no expectation of financial reward.

This is so unlike the EU where the busybodies expect us to pay for their interference.
