What have they got against English

Walking past the European Parliament yesterday I noticed this sign to the visitor's centre (said to be Belgium's leading tourist site). Spot the deliberate mistake.

Not at all. They know full well that Brits are either pro-EU, and therefore know their way there already, or anti, in which case they'd have no interest in finding it.

Why waste signage space.

They include the Union Jack for the Gaelic version since this language enjoys official status in Northern Ireland.
There are probably two more signs right by, one including the English version with the Union Jack and the Tricolor. Just as the Belgian flag appears twice.
I will check this afternoon...

Pablo, you are of course right, just a bit of silliness on my part

Great, since I never checked...
Oh, and congratulations for this great blog!
