I think the European Union has been a massive success and is something that we all benefit from overall but sometimes it feels like I'm the only one. The problem is that when you ask people what they think of the EU they tell you that we pay loads of money into it so that people in Brussels can stop us selling straight bananas in pounds instead of kilograms.
Following on from the great work at whatthefuckhasobamadonesofar.com I wanted to set up a similar site that lets people know what the EU has done for us. It turns out it's done a lot more than I thought.
