[wdmmg-discuss] Where does Europe's money go?

Wed Apr 20 23:10:21 UTC 2011

With recent proposals to increase EU budget by 4.9%, and criticism
from member states [1], it seems like EU spending is particularly
topical at the moment. I wonder whether it might be interesting to use
the EU budget visualisations in Open Spending [2] to do a brief
walkthrough of EU spending? E.g. even just a basic screencast with a
voiceover?

Lisa, Simon: just a thought - but I wonder if this is something that
you might be interested in? :-)
