The EU used to be more biased towards about rational debate founded on objectivity. The megabucks minorities are slowly exerting influence.

    The more to the right the less we’re going to see objectivity and legislations favouring the people. I’m still not sure where the money is in this one but I bet someone is pushing for this to bank on the ban.

    I wholeheartedly agree. There may not be a direct greasing of palms. I suspect that the sleazy multi-billion pound companies have the methodology to be put in front of key decision makers and so to influence. Even if it's not to the MEPs directly. They all require advisers.
