The only reason we get to know about these idiots is because people choose to give them creedence by reporting their insane ramblings.

Ignore him and he'll go away/die.

Only posted in comedy value. Just an indicator that people who understand their field are the ones best placed to make decisions, not politicians, who don't really have a field, other than making headlines.

And I agree, EU are a bunch of "politicians" who failed at a national level, and for good reason.

I wondered if muppet MEP gets driven around in a battery powered car (so minimal damage caused to environment), but being a Medeling Euro Prick & time is of the essence i think you will find he flies everywhere in a plane so perhaps we should limit his flight to 99 mph  :y

more than that they tried the patience of "normal" drivers, who lose their patience - albeit wrongly -  and commit to a move that causees an error of judgement to be made and ....BLAM.
