Barroso congratulates Germany for Geography.

Ever heard of the Golden Victoria Award - me neither, though it sounds something to do with the breakfast cereal industry.


Anyhow it appears that Donald Tusk is this year's recipient of most sycophantic European. And Jose took time away from his busy schedule of dreaming up new ways to ensure that the people's of Europe have no say in the Governance of their countries to send a video congratulations.

The text is extraodinary,

Dear Donald, I congratulate you to be the European of the Year, ladies and gentlemen, I also want to congratulate Germany for having the new Poland as its neighbour country. Thank you very much.

Another recipient was that nice chap Henry Kissenger.
