Seeing the number grow by the seconds is somewhat fascinating
The only downside is the front of the car is looking a bit more grubby than usual.
If you're getting grubs on your windscreen you're driving needs work :)
That is exactly what they are asking for, but it's not up to them to decide for the other countries.
A race to the bottom. I understand the idea, but I don't find it great.
> a European law to ban them
... would indeed be a better solution.
Not that I know every French people
I guess the problem is the dosage? Why can't they just divide doses by 5 or 10?
I fear they can't trust farmers to put too much?

Sometimes I have questions about the narrow-minded views of politicians. Sure, it helps 10 farmers but harms 100. Nobody seems to keep in mind the fact that if we kill the bees they're gonna take us with them.
Feels like that episode from Yellowstone:
John Dutton: And what effect you think 7000 acres of solar panels are going to have on their environment?
Stanley: There's no evidence that solar panels would have any impact on the sage grouse
John Dutton: What do they do with the sagebrush when they put in the solar panels?
Stanley: They, they, they would clear it before putting in the solar panels.
John Dutton: And remove the sagebrush?
Stanley: Yes sir.
John Dutton: Sage Grouse live in the sagebrush.
Stanley: They do.
John Dutton: And you don't think removing the sagebrush is gonna have an effect on the population?
Stanley: I just said there's no evidence...
John Dutton: You know what scares me about you, Stanley? You're serious.

It's not that they're serious about the grouses, it's that the grouses, the country or their own mother could crash and burn, they won't shed a tear as long as they can escape in time. And they're not smart enough to realize that they will probably not escape this one.
