European Parliament: Nil Point

Drew says it like it is.

BBC News reports on the launch of a new site for the European Parliament. With the intention of putting a ‘friendlier face’ to a parliamentary body who has historically felt very distant to most, if not all, European citizens, you would have thought that only good things can come from this.

But oh dear. With the whole of Europe to pick from, the European Parliament has somehow managed to get a site built by people who don’t know how to build web sites. Who’da thunk it?
