Another reason (if one were needed) to oppose the EU

My voracious reading brings me an interesting snippet about the European Parliament Building in Brussels. Apparently seat number 666 is not only always vacant, but it is listed in internal documentation as 'reserved'.
Reserved? Reserved for whom, precisely?
I have to say that I'm not overly reassured by the thought that, not content with giving us Jacques Barrot*, Neil Kinnock**, and Peter Mandelson***, we may well soon have Beelzebub himself representing our interests in Brussels


^{*The Commissioner who didn't think that a convinction for embezzlement was worth mentioning when he stood for the position
**Three.Time.Loser.
***Who may well soon have to resign for the third time, this time over his links to Eli Calil, whom Equatorial Guineau have accused of being a major instigator of the planned coup in that country.}

But always nice to know they are prepared for the event.

I think it's fairly amusing actually.
And this is Brussels, it's a fairly nutty place.
I'm fairly sure that a lot of odd things happen in UK poltics as well mind you.

Glad to see you and Mr Paisley have similar views re the seat.

The CAP is plainly the work of Satan already, so what would you expect him to do about it?
