Die Standortdebatte in der EU

Vor einigen Tagen erhielt ich eine Ketten-E-mail von einer Freundin. Ihr zentraler Inhalt war der folgende:

The European Parliament should be located in Brussels.

It costs European taxpayers approximately 200 million Euros a year to move the Parliament between Brussels/Belgium and Strasbourg/France. As a citizen of the European Union, I want the European Parliament to be located only in Brussels.

Participatory democracy
Article 47 on participatory democracy in the proposed constitution for the European Union, which the European Commission supports, wants the citizens of the European Union to become more active and to participate in the debate on European issues. Therefore, we are starting a citizens' initiative to collect a million signatures to put an end to this waste of taxpayers' money.

Join 931845 other european citizens in signing the petition!

Schaut euch die verlinkte Seite mal an. Ich selber hab sie ehrlich gesagt nur überflogen, aber interessant klang das Thema schon.
(Die oben zitierte Nachricht in der Serien-Mail war leider, wie üblich, anonym.)

Was haltet ihr davon?
