Re: A 36 Year Media Failure (none / 1)

Why can't Brussels produce good literature or good campaigns that MEPs can adapt and use for their constituencies?

Why doesn't Whitehall produce good literature or good campaigns that MPs can adapt and use in elections?

Yes, fine - but I haven't said Whitehall shouldn't. I'm saying that as well as National Governments perhaps Brussels does have role.

I am not talking about election material. I am talking about informing the general public of what the EU does and how it has benefited them.

Perhaps because it isn't trying to unify the UK, or trying to organise the signing of a treaty which would unify the UK.

You want an organisation with a stated interest in promoting closer links by democratic means, including but not limited to parliamentary democracy and referenda, to ignore those same democratic means because - er - why, exactly?

i don't suppose (4.00 / 4)

that the following counts as "good literature":

Britain in the European Union | Foreign & Commonwealth Office
What have we gained?
Common EU Myths

Europe: The Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform's (BERR)
European Union Membership - The Benefits
EU Single Market - Introduction
What if we left the European Union?
Europe: it's your business (Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform) [PDF]

it is a bit sparse.

Truth unfolds in time through a communal process.
