That huge idiot is wrong again. But he has never contributed to DIY so hasn't caused any actual damage by people doing the wrong thing.

[Andrew]

The 'Pub Landlord' made this statement on a recent program where he drove around. Germany accompanied by a local journo. The approved car wash facility he went through was very impressive.

He drove a Merc 'grosser' and a hot rod VW round Nurburgring

[Andrew]

No I wasn't, that's why I followed the sentence with a smily.

But you never know what daft ideas will come out of the EU (Germany) next. Banning high power AV amps perhaps ?, or maybe TV's that use more than 60 watts ?. At least they won't ban burning coal because they are building a few new brown-coal fired power stations for themselves.

[Andrew]

No I didn't, Didn't you notice the smily ??

[Andrew]

"Driving in Germany is a lot like driving in the UK ",

Yes indeed, we all drive almost exactly the same cars !.

[Dave Plowman (News)]

Just carry on reading the Express. They'll soon invent a few more to get their readers foaming at the mouth.

[Andrew]

Never ever look at it. All the things that the EU have banned have been reported in all the papers at some point,..

Almost any garden chemical of any use Powerful vacs Creosote Methylene Chloride paint stripper Paint that actually protects properly Light bulbs Vapona strips and many other domestic treatments Coal (exemptions for Germany)

and they are determined to ban glyphosate at some point (but Bayer have a much more expensive on-patent replacement).

[dennis]

Brexiteers always smile when they are blaming the EU.

[dennis]

Not true,

Not true

Not true but it should be

Maybe.

not true

not true

for good reasons

not true

See brexiteers lie.

[Dave Plowman (News)]

What chemicals do you use in a garden?

You've bought a vac under the new regs which isn't up to it? Care to name and shame?

Pretty nasty stuff.

Only from DIY products.

Which one would that be? Lead paint? Banned here before the EU existed.

They've been banned have they?

You seem to want to poison yourself. Fairy nuff, but others might not.

Can you give some details about coal being banned?

Ah - that would be one of the chemicals you use in a garden?

I'd have thought it easy for a rabid Brexiteer to come up with some really daft EU regs. All you've managed to say is you want any dangerous chemical to be freely available and don't care how much you spend on wasting energy. And that you're not old enough to remember the evil smogs cause by burning coal.

1/10. Must try harder.

[Cursitor Doom]

And you're a feckin' eejit.

[dennis]

So you think anyone that tells the truth is an eejit, typical brexshiteer. Why don't you find a group where you know enough to contribute something useful?

[RJH]

When you say 'they banned' you presumably mean 'we' - the UK was involved in the decision. And good riddance to most of the stuff you list, I'd have thought (although Lidl were selling a 1500W vacuum the other day).

I was in Germany recently and signs on the hotel breakfast toasters warned against browning - carcinogenic apparently. They were set to produce slightly warm bread. It'd amuse me no end to see 'our' EU legislate for that :-)

[dennis]

That's because its all brexiteer lies and they haven't actually banned any of the stuff. Except the Vapona fly killers maybe.

As you have seen you can still buy 1500w vacs because they haven't been banned. However domestic vacs are limited in power. Workshop vacs are not.

These brexiteers actually believe that if they keep trotting out the same old lies that everyone will think they are true.

I wish they would just tell us the real reason they want to leave so we can make a judgement on fact rather than that they lie.

[Peter Hill]

They want POWER! Without the control of the EU.

Well that's the 0.00005% that actually form policy and "run" the country from Whitehall.

The minions just fell for it hook line and sinker just like the people of Turkey.
