“The European Union’s ‘addiction’ to red tape was laid bare yesterday.  Since the 2010 general election Brussels has handed down almost 3,600 pieces of new regulation and directives affecting British businesses.  The 13million words contained in the deluge of bureaucracy would take more than 92 days to read in all.  UK companies have had to fight proposed EU legislation such as measures to ban the Union Jack from packs of meat, enforce quotas in boardrooms and prohibit refillable olive oil jugs in restaurants.  The EU has found time to issue regulations on anchovy fishing in the Bay of Biscay, the labelling of spirits and the use of rosemary extracts in certain low-fat meat and fish products.”
