Yeah, yeah, the bone's for me. Nudge-nudge. Wink-wink.

This is LONDON

This is insane.

Is this a source like BrokenNews? This is a joke, right?

The EU is as useless as the UN.

Old Mother Hubbard
Went to the cupboard
to get her dog a bone
Than the EU came over
and bent Hubbard over
and gave her a bone of their own.

paraphrased Andrew Dice Clay.

We are from the EU and we are here to he'p you.

[ElkGroveDan]

Nick, nack, patty whack, give your dog a plate of quiche instead.

[j_tull]

barmy EU directive? Translation, anyone?

[JoJo Gunn]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - the EU will become one of the darkest stains of human History.

[BlueLancer]

Heck, just tell the butcher that you want the bone left in, take it home and de-bone it yourself, and then give it to your dog.

[Augie]

When bones are banned, only criminals will have bones...

[randog]

It [The Department of Foo] said the bones are now considered "waste" which must be properly disposed of.

A spokesman said: "Customers can take bones away with them when they buy the deboned meat if it is for human consumption.

"But if the bone is waste or for pet food then it's a byproduct - and cannot be passed to the public."

OK, fine, but what if you buy, say, a whole chicken, roast it, and eat the meat--what do you do with the bones? Do you have to sort them out and put them in a special receptacle for the trash man to pick up? And what if you don't? Brought up to the World Court on charges of Crimes Against Humanity? (You laugh now...)

EU= Worlds biggist madhouse.
just when you thought they could not get any dummer

Simple solution. Free "soup" bones.

Dog owners?!?! In the EU???

[shaggy eel]

"It seems to me to be another barmy EU directive."

,,, apathy like that makes it so easy for Brussels to win on anything. I'd love to see the size of the library that houses EU rules and regulations. What a fascist nightmare it's becoming.

"But if the bone is waste or for pet food then it's a byproduct - and cannot be passed to the public."

A modern Gulliver would not have to sail off to a distant sea to find a delusional world for satire. A short hop across the Channel would do just as well.

It sounds as though the EU has fallen into the hands of the "Neo-Cons." This makes as much sense as "Democracy in the Third World." But then, the European Left has been trying to "catch up" with the Third World for some time now. ("Catch up" being applied here to those with no comprehension of direction.)

Will no one reawaken sanity in the West?!

This shows how inane, degenerate and decadent the western European states have become. They are tossing themselves as a bone to the Muslims while acting on nonse like this while the wolf is not just in the door, but snarling in the nursery.

[antiRepublicrat]

If this were the U.S., I'd say the rule was paid for by the animal waste disposal industry, but then there would at least be a point to the law. The EU just does this stuff because they're stupid and forget that real people live real lives way down there below the clouds.

"I just don't see where the EU is coming from."

They're coming from hell with pointers from it's more well known residents...Satan, Stalin, Moa, Marx, Lenin, G. Kahn...
