Nanny State to Ban Toasters, Kettles & Hair Dryers!

Despite arctic sea ice growing by 43%, the EU nanny state is set to ban toasters, hair dryers and kettles in the name of preventing global warming.

Is this a lose of economic freedom? A lose of personal freedom? A sign that the people that run the EU are insane? When will NY or CA start copying some of this nonsense?

Kettles? As in, tea kettles?

England's about to pull out of the EU, folks.

First it's vacuum cleaners, now 'lunatics' in EU plan barmy bans on HAIRDRYERS and KETTLES

Bosses in Brussels have made a provisional list of 30 household appliances which could be restricted next year.

They want to cut the power of hairdryers by nearly a third in a bid to be a greener Europe, with other every day household items facing the cull including kettles, toasters and lawnmowers.

The move has sparked outrage among the UK with Ukip saying the decision by "nannying Eurocrats" was another reason to leave Europe.

From Monday some of the country's best vacuum cleaners will be among those to be banned because they have motors above the new EU limit of 1,600 watts.

The permitted wattage will be almost halved from September 2017 as the limit is changed to a pathetic 900 watts.

It has sparked a spike in vacuum cleaner sales as house-proud shoppers rush to pick up powerful products, causing shops to sell out of many popular models.

F'k the EU ... they should have 0000000000000000000000 influence in the world... They rank below Louisiana and Mississipi if they were an American State... Who gives a chit what they do ...

Don't let us a get turned into the north American union. Mass illegal immigration is one way of implementing it. More Mexicans in USA means merging with Mexico more easy. Not sure about canadians... If they wanna for a union.

Either way... illegal immigration, nafta and national parks being UN property will bring us the north American union. You can kiss the constitution goodbye as UN and NA union laws overwrite us laws.
