About this title

Synopsis

Charts the progress of a businessman who, frustrated by increasing EU regulation made by politicians with no experience of the real world, quits a successful career in order to become a Member of the European Parliament. In a candid and humorous account, Philip Bushill-Matthews reveals what he found in his new role and lays bare many of the excesses and bureaucratic bunglings of the EU, from fraud and corruption to dotty directives. Avoiding political jargon, he gives an insight into many of the issues of the day and exposes full details of MEP's pay and expenses.
