The EU doesn't have any "federal" laws. It has directives, which the 
nations are supposed to implement through national laws.

It's quite possible (probable even) that there is a British national law 
which prohibits the destruction of currency. Whether it applies to 
non-British currency is something else again. It'd make for interesting 
headlines... ;)
