Europhile

Sweet EuropeI am quite keen on Europe, I wouldn’t mind if the UK joined the Euro tomorrow. I also love cake. In fact, one reason I love Europe so much is that I love European cafe culture so I was bound to feel enthusiastic about the way the Austrians decided to mark Europe day today. What a contrast, though, with Britain’s presidency of the EU. Have a look at the website for the UK presidency. What a bunch of dreary tossers; the whole thing looks like it was designed by the Tories in 1989. Now have a look at the logo for the UK 1998 presidency. It’s depressing because it reminds me how New Labour started off so up-beat and positive. Oh guys, come on, I’m not angry, just disappointed. You could have been so much better.

    Oh, and by the way, if anyone has a copy of this poster, or the one with the cups, I’ll do you a good swap.

    They’ve sent me a copy of each! They’re fantastic, apart from the creases where the Royal Mail squashed the parcel :-(
