The TaxPayers' Alliance - Campaign: An opportunity to save taxpayers' money - but MEPs just don't care

This post is typical of the excellent stuff that the TPA put out.

All these posts to me are a consequence of one thing: that without an incentive to do something, humans will not do it. We react to physical immediate demands. No MEP is remotely inconvenienced by the ludicrous processing from Brussels to Strasbourg, and so they "can't be arsed", in the modern idiom, even to press a button or mark a cross or whatever to vote against it. You can bet that they are not so lethargic when it comes to getting press coverage.
