Lazy politicians
For once the EU’s got it right! I knew that politicans never did any work, and this proves it:
Working Hours
Mike Penning: To ask the Prime Minister what EU regulations govern his working hours; what opt outs exist to provide for him to surpass working hour regulations; what court cases are currently before the European courts reviewing the legality of these opt outs; and if he will make a statement.The Prime Minister: Holders of political offices in the UK are not defined as “workers” under the terms of European working time legislation, and are therefore not subject to the working time limits: as such, they do not need to opt out.
