He takes three and a half minutes to say something that could have been said much more powerfully in 40 seconds. Why? Because so he can put it on his blog , enjoy the approval and validation of people that agree with him, and congratulate himself for being aticulate and clever ?

Interesting watching this. The line "you are the devalued Prime Minister of a devalued government" was famously used by the then Labour leader John Smith in September 1992, to Prime Minister John Major, when we were slung out of the ERM and lost ?45 billion in one afternoon. So he has lifted that comment from there.

Second, the European Union is such a gravy-train that there are even some people who now work there (like that oaf John Prescott) who don't get paid a salary but as their expenses and allowances are so ridiculously high they effectively DO have a salary. The MEP talking in this clip has the nerve to go on about the cost to the taxpayer of the non-productive areas such as the public sector (people like him in other words) whilst he is happy to get paid all this crazy money and line his pockets from that very pot - and have no conscience about doing so - whilst claiming (and this is on top of his large salary) mad levels of subsistence, allowances, etc, with all of it coming from the taxpaper.

He will probably fly to and from Brussels 75 times to 100 times a year (claiming for all the flights obviously), he will claim about ?200 a day meal allowances (they assume that as you are a high-brow kind of guy you need ?60-?70 per meal). He will rarely spend more than about ?10 a day on food and just pocket all the rest. He will claim loads of dry-cleaning billls for suits that he wont even get dry-cleaned very often (he will wear a suit 3 times but claim the dry-cleaning costs for each time - so he will get 3 lots of money but spend only 1 of it).

There are many other things to, like hotel allowances at ?150.00 per night yet he will stay somehwhere much cheaper and stick the rest in his bank account. None of this is against the rules. I know all this as I worked for the public sector myself but never had priviledges like that, but knew people who did. They all milked the whole system for every penny and never gave a damn. Just like this guy. He really is a hypocrite!

The clip seemed to link to the Daily Telegraph. Is his blog hosted by the Telegraph .. does he get paid by The Telegraph ? It's quite likely he's as insincere and self interested as the rest of them. Why should I trust what he says ?

Neil and Glenys Kinnock have become millionaires out of being Euro scroungers, sorry MEPs. One a man who never did a proper days work and her a former teacher. I rest my case.

Neal Kinnock was a miner.
