Right so you at last acknowledge that the overproduction existed and was geared substantially to the benefit of the French. Got there. You can even mutter the words "French self interest" now ?

Because that happened does not excuse interests being skewed towwards any one nation now but no one can be under any illusion that nations are acting and have acted with strong self interest within the EU (not least the PIGS) and that any sneering at the UK (which was very xenpophobic at the start of this thread) must be seen in context as to how others have and will act
