Who Says Membership isn't Beneficial

Three of the EU's newer members are in a fight that shows they have learned the rules of the game. Its all about The Gender Institute.

Slovenia, Slovakia and Lithuania are now preparing to step up their lobbying to be host to the institute which will have an annual budget of around €8 million.

One has to applaud their dedication to the cause of Wimmin's Rights, unless you are cynical. Cynics will dismiss this as nothing more than a fight over our cash and EU prestige.
