I did find an interesting parliamentary research paper discussing the WTD including the UK objections to the H&S basis of the WTD and the subsequent ECJ judgement. It also has nice appendices on the working hours and holidays of different then EU countries - http://researchbriefings.files.parli...6/RP96-106.pdf

That link will do. The French thing is well known by those watching it at the time; they are also the ones that opposed the Services Directive for the same reasons.

Not an obsession. But a bit strange that on a day when he's found to be breaking the law, Brexiiters suddenly become interested in the Working Time Directive.

You're being ridiculous. What's the big deal with Banks? To hell with him and the clutching at straws that some Remainers have in their heads.

I brought in the WTD not as a diversion from Banks but to keep us focused on the shenanigans of the EU and in that case protection of France's interests. Are you Remainers really respecters of the rigged Cap (in favour of France)? Are you really in favour of the rigged Euro (in favour of Germany)? Are you really in favour of the perfidious Irish using the CU to try and keep us shackled to the EU (in favour of Irish exports)?

You might well argue, and some of you have, that we brought this on ourselves by voting Leave. Be that as it may, the EU are determined to wreck Brexit and they should be vilified for their perfidy rather than the democratic Leave vote.
