EU Blunder

As you all know I am no fan of the EU for what they do to the UK, what the heck are they playing at giving extreme right wing political force. This has to be a very bad move and goes to show the EU in a bad light.

Gypsy-haters, holocaust-deniers, xenophobes, homophobes, anti-semites: the EU's new political force

20 MEPs yesterday signed up to the new formation called Identity, Tradition, Sovereignty (ITS). As a formal group, they are entitled to up to €1m in central funding. It is led by Bruno Gollnisch of France's National Front, who is awaiting a court verdict on charges of Holocaust denial.

I always thought the EU in was a blunder in general, but this is just nutty. Like really, really nutty. :huh:

That's democracy for you. If you want voting then you have to accept that "evil" people might be voted in to power.
You can't have it both ways.

I think the biggest problem with centralised European politics is that not enough people are involved with it.
