European integration is a wonderful thing: from a Times article on the upcoming election for the European parliament,

...a European Parliament advertisement featured a woman offering a bare nipple to her baby. In the image, the baby must decide which nipple to suckle on, just as European voters must choose at the polls.

Ireland initially barred the advertisement; Britain blurred the nipple on screen. Spain, meanwhile, just insisted that it be translated into all four of its regional languages.


I really must take a trip to Spain sometime.
