It's a pity the EU doesn't seem to wholly agree, what with shipping vast amounts of people and paperwork back and forth between Brussels and Strasbourg in this instant digital age eh? Maybe they're Brexiteers too...

In all, the EU admits that the monthly Strasbourg sitting, which lasts just four days, costs an additional £93 million a year. The Conservative Party in Europe, which is leading a campaign to abandon it, estimates the cost a little higher at £130 million, or about £928 million in the seven-year cycle of an EU budget.
