Welcome to the EU - nice to see the recession is really biting.


Quote:
Construction work has begun on a £103 million building for the European Parliament, provoking an angry response from residents of Brussels and MEPs.
Atenor, the building’s developer, has admitted that the 12-storey block is at least 15 per cent more expensive than the average construction cost for office space in the European Union’s capital city.
An EU building boom has continued regardless of austerity measures, with projects including a £60 million House of European History and a £280 million urn-shaped “jewel case” site for summits.



This is what happens when you have a self imposed self congratulatory empire builder that doesn't have to answer to anyone. They blow obscene amounts of public money to serve themselves instead of their people.

Capitalism at its worst.
