    15 million euros would be a drop in the ocean. It sounds like a lot of money but for the entire EU it’s a tiny tiny amount.

    Just more anti-EU scare mongering.

    Believe me it’s a wiser thing to spend money on!

    If they gave those 15 million eur. for the ones that remained hurt by the crysis, they would do an infinitely better thing, than just throw them right in the toilet and flush, as they apparently did!

    NO to EU!

    SPREAD THE WORD
    If citizens vote for the “WAI D” Your decision party. Citizens will be in charge.
    Only one commitment.
    The candidates of the movement, if elected as MEPs, will undertake at their own expense the creation of an internet site where citizens will have the chance to express, their own opinions.
    The citizen will have the opportunity to propose laws and amendments and to give orders directly to their own MEP, putting to the vote of other citizens their own proposals and ideas.

    I hope they wont spend these money on britain. it would be waste of money. xenophobic, pro-us anti-eu media already established fear agenda in UK – its not really hard to wake a fear in people’s hearts.

    Say no to EU. Say no to muslim immigration, to terrorists, to high taxes, to Pope, to irish catholic terrorists, to abortions, to global warming caused by EU, etc

    pretty easy.

    While spending our money..they break international law ! Lisbon/EU constitution is a blatant violation of Article 1 of the UN’s Covernant on Civil and Political rights !

    European voters are getting tired of being lied to by the un-elected commission !
    There are no plans for a European superstate.
    There are no plans for a European Army.
    Galileo is not for military use.
    The Constitution is not comparable to the Lisbon Treaty.
    The un-elected Commission respects the Irish NO vote !

    I’m really shocked. I can’t believe the EU is only putting in 15 million to this campaign.

    It doesn’t show the commitment it really needs to be making to ensuring all of the citizens in each member state get to hear anbout the elections.

    As for the campaign itself, what is the communications agency doing to publicise this multimedia site? And relying on T.V channels to volunteer advertising space in order to ‘get in on the fun’ is this a joke?

    I have seen ZERO publicity in Britain. They need to do way more in my opinion.

    15 million Euros isn’t a huge amount to spend. Less than the cost of a Eurofighter’s wing…lol.
