Logo creates disunity
It seems that the new EU wine label logo is not as uniting as people hoped.
The French have complained because the logo doesn’t look the same when you translate it into different languages, and supposedly it’s in English on some EU sites (not French). Here are the French changes:
…and the original one:
Some also believe it looks like Google and the ‘r’ at the end is like the copyright symbol - symbolising capitalism. Clearly these aren’t things the EU should be celebrating. That’s also no problem if we keep the French version.
According to the Times, the Germans are also unhappy - and plan to produce their own logo.
I can’t wait for the celebrations next year.
