Default Glyphosate and the EU

Chris Hogg wrote:

There is a strong debate here in the UK over the vote in June as to
whether we remain in the EU, or leave. One of the many arguments
revolves around all the regulations imposed by Brussels on the use of
agricultural chemicals. It's often said that only the UK takes notice
of those regulations and everyone else ignores them. If the situation
is as you say, then that would seem to be the case.


Sigh.
The issue of glyphosate has absolutely nothing to do with the EU,
since there is no difference between the UK and EU on the subject.
Also, it is nonsense to say that only the UK takes notice
of this regulation.
In fact the Dutch are the leaders in pressing for glyphosate
to be banned.
