    And if you read the article, it's clear that it's the poorer countries of the EU who have the corruption problem. With the exception of Italy, granting them EU membership was the equivalent of a mercy shag. No surprise when the EU catches STDs from them.

    Now how can I get that into one of my lectures (without upsetting any students from said countries)?
