The president of European Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso cannot take it anymore. The row egg-bombardment in Italy and Belgium had forced him to waste taxpayers’ money for dry cleaning of two of his tailored-made dark blue suits. The caring president of our Europe freaked out. After thorough contemplation on how to save taxpayers’ money, he finally warned elections winner Angela Merkel not to bow to possible Social-democrats’ pressure for less and relaxed austerity.
While Barroso promotes “strict austerity” as a pretext to “investment and job creation”, in fact he has only one target in mind: to deprive EU-ridden and austerity-hit citizens from buying eggs in order to throw them at him. Unconfirmed rumors claim his slogan for the upcoming EU elections next May would be
“Let’s go for an egg-free Europe”.
No more eggs for EU citizens, I say!
The News: Barroso warns Germany against less austerity
The President of the European Commission has advised Germany to maintain the austerity programme in Europe as negotiations between Angela Merkel’s conservatives and the Social Democrats begin in earnest.
In an interview on Wednesday with the Bild newspaper, José Manuel Barroso said: “It would not be wise to abandon the current path of balancing budgets, structural reforms and direct investment.”
But he added that at the same time Europe should focus on “building confidence, growth and creating new jobs”. (full article The Local)
Barroso pelted with eggs in Liege, Belgium and Lampedusa, Italy
This way to egg-free Europe!
For a f̶o̶l̶k̶ yolk-free Europe try ‘Hide and Squeak Eggs’ with the hidden extra. New from International Bankthings at http://www.toysrus.com/buy/pretend-play-dress-up/food-accessories/play-food/hide-and-squeak-eggs-ty1581-3540660 —- Yes its ‘Time to Grow’. Who needs that that messy yucky investment stuff when you got bankthings….
So don’t count your rubber chickens before they hatch. Austerity (creating unemployment) is job creation. It could be true (more grave diggers). It is direct investment. It could be true (hearse manufacturing). But above all, remember this is Barroso’s World – a different universe, where what could true must be true…..
and BTW the EU Commission is bankrupt LOL
Oh good Incidentally, in the US rubber refers to condom but in UK the eraser is called a rubber. As the EU commission has been so accidental prone, with eggs being hurled all over the place, I was not sure which meaning of the word is appropriate.
I understood ‘rubber” rubber. #I_am_innocent
If you are referring to “rubber chickens”, that is perfectly appropriate and acceptable.
Also, “where the rubber meets the road” refers to tires (which are made of rubber”.
Condoms are “rubbers”. Or I am going to put on a “rubber”. Which would NOT indicate that you are going to to install a chicken (rubber or otherwise) on yourself.
ttthhhank you!
