Crazy Europe To Control Britains Sporting Issues

Brussels wants to take over sporting issues across the European union after Tony Blair signed away the National Veto last month.

Jan Figel, the EU commissioner in charge of sport, believes sport should be subject to the same rules as other economic sectors.
He wants Europe to be in charge of everything from football transfer fees to crackdowns on corruption.

EU Leaders signed away the ability of one country to block proposals on sporting issues when they agreed on a replacement to the constitutional treaty. More than 50 vetoes have been voted away to prevent legislative deadlock in the EU, which has grown now to 27 members
