You have to be glad that MEPs are not that-likely to click through to images with deletion templates, and then onto this embarrassment.
As the nomination says, there’s no FOP in France, so pictures of modern buildings in France can’t go on Commons without clear permission… I’m not sure whether that should be an embarrassment for Commons or for the MEPs… ;-)
I have here, still pinned to my jacket, a bright-yellow press accreditation card from the EU Parliament. That, quite clearly, and within the guidelines issued to us, covers permission to film, take photos, etc, etc both inside and outside the European Parliament.
Since the argument for deletion is being based upon French law, it's only the French MEPs who should be *seriously* embarrassed. Although, I am tempted to send this on to Christian Engström as yet-another-stick with which to beat them up about copyright.
