Pat, this is yet another made up story from the usual right-wing lunatic fringe.
It joins a long line of anti-EU stories including Britain having to have straight bananas, trawler fisherman having to wear compulsory hairnets and trapeze artists forced to wear hard hats due to EU health & safety legislation......every last story complete and utter dreck, of course. There is practically an emtire industry in the UK press devoted to EU scare stories such as these which are, of course, lapped up by gullible right-wing nut jobs. Please Pat, and any other menbers if this listserver, do NOT take this story seriously...it is complete rubbish from start to finish. ----- Original Message ----- From: Pat Naughtin To: U.S. Metric Association Cc: USMA Metric Association Sent: Wednesday, June 30, 2010 4:09 AM Subject: [USMA:47996] Eggs in Europe Dear All, I responded to this article at http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1290099/Leave-eggs-Tories-warn-Brussels.html?ito=feeds-newsxml Cheers, Pat Naughtin Author of the ebook, Metrication Leaders Guide, see http://metricationmatters.com/MetricationLeadersGuideInfo.html Hear Pat speak at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lshRAPvPZY PO Box 305 Belmont 3216, Geelong, Australia Phone: 61 3 5241 2008 Metric system consultant, writer, and speaker, Pat Naughtin, has helped thousands of people and hundreds of companies upgrade to the modern metric system smoothly, quickly, and so economically that they now save thousands each year when buying, processing, or selling for their businesses.
