I'd like to quote the theory of great minds here...</p> <p>If you want to take anything I have in my bit and combine it with yours I don't mind in the slightest. I just saw the headline about this on the BBC site at dinnertime and thought I'd try and put a spin on it. I figured that given the story is from last year there might have been something done on this already. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=6476#post-17538 Tue, 15 Jun 2010 13:37:31 +0000 wallster 17538@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Ah Svendo, I just nipped back to the old subs board and found a similar one I made earlier (see link).

Yet only now after 16 deaths and numerous cases of admittance to quarantine wards do the EU step in and want regulation. That's Euro Beaurocracy for you". </p>
