Are EU calling my bird a pint?
And they are at it again! Via Serf, the EU is making attempts to curb binge-drinking...
Fuck off, you unelected bunch of cunts.
Fuck off, you miserable bunch of cunts.
Naturally, the EU—and, most particularly Finland—will be making good any revenue shortfalls that any organisation suffers as a result of these rules? No, didn't think so.
Fuck off, you unelected bunch of cunts.
Oh, for fuck's sake: do you want to bet that they aren't going to make alcohol any cheaper? And health warnings? What's next: a picture of a sclerotic liver on your bottle of Bacardi Breezer?
Fuck me, you mean that the alcohol companies aren't spending that advertising money out of the pure goodness of their hearts? Now, that is a surprise!
And where is the individual dimension here? Are we human beings with the power to make our own decisions, or are we automatons; slaves to an ovine desire to follow the latest shiny product?
The answer is that just because some choose to subsume the former to the latter does not mean that implying that every citizen in Europe is a fucking sheep isn't incredibly insulting.
Yup, well, there's a distinct lack of surprise over in this corner...
Quite.
That's fine*: punish the antisocial and the criminal, and leave everybody else the fuck alone, you bastard cunts. And, again, fuck off, you unelected bunch of cunts.
Unio Europaea delenda est.
* Within the proviso that—in our framework of innocent until proven guilty—I dislike the concept of "on-the-spot fines".
Alcohol brand advertising and sponsorship activity could be curtailed under measures to combat binge drinking being considered by the European Commission.
Fuck off, you unelected bunch of cunts.
According to The Sunday Times, the plans will be revealed later this summer. They are supported by Finland, which yesterday took up the presidency of the European Union.
Fuck off, you miserable bunch of cunts.
Finland wants EU-wide laws in place by 2010 to ban alcohol ads before the 9pm watershed as well as sports sponsorship deals such as Budweiser's association with the World Cup. The £28m deal with Fifa covers the South Africa 2010 and 2014 tournaments as well as Germany 2006.
Naturally, the EU—and, most particularly Finland—will be making good any revenue shortfalls that any organisation suffers as a result of these rules? No, didn't think so.
Fuck off, you unelected bunch of cunts.
Other proposals in the commission's strategy against binge drinking include controls on the prices of alcohol and discount offers as well as health warnings on alcoholic drinks.
Oh, for fuck's sake: do you want to bet that they aren't going to make alcohol any cheaper? And health warnings? What's next: a picture of a sclerotic liver on your bottle of Bacardi Breezer?
The moves come as a study carried out for the commission has found evidence that alcohol ads encourage youth drinking and increase overall consumption.

A European alcohol industry trade body told The Sunday Times it was against the proposals.
Yup, well, there's a distinct lack of surprise over in this corner...
Jamie Fortescue, director-general of the European Spirits Organisation, said: "There are no pan-European solutions to a problem which differs significantly from one member state and drinking culture to another."
Quite.
In the UK the government has campaigned against binge drinking with hard-hitting warnings of on-the-spot fines for alcohol-fuelled disorderly behaviour. One poster spelt out "£80" in vomit.
That's fine*: punish the antisocial and the criminal, and leave everybody else the fuck alone, you bastard cunts. And, again, fuck off, you unelected bunch of cunts.

I live in Reading and we've come up with a very innovative solution to binge drinking and the problems associated with it. It was quite simple really. We closed all the independently owned pubs and in their place erected carbon copy, shiny chrome shit holes that attracts these fuckers like flies to shit, this way if you want a trouble free night you know exactly where to avoid!
