Off the top - and in no particular order:
Cornish signs- written in...Cornish language...ffs!
Bull Fighting financed
Moving to impose new Criminal law practices including:
guilty until proven innocent; repeal of habeas corpus (in Europe you can be arrested and held indefinitely without charge - usually limited to 3-6 months)
end of right of trial by jury- judged by a State appointed individual(s)
undemocratic- the lawmakers are unelected
corrupt - the EU central budget spend / accounts has not been signed off by the auditors for 10 years + - because the amounts spent cannot be accounted for !
inefficient - e.g. once a month the EU Parliament has to physically up sticks and move for a week from Brugge to Strasburg: why?- because an over-riding Treatise dictates that all laws can only be passed on French soil- and everyone agrees its a nonsense and a waste of 150million Euros p.a.
40% of budget spent on Common Agricultural Policy - ensuring subsidies to Southern Italy who import Spanish Olive Oil by the tankerload- then bottle it on site labelled as Italian olive Oil - and italy gets the CAP payment - its higher for Italy than for Spain you see.

The misuse of EU funds in Italy has been highlighted by the case of a village building a £1.5 million (€2m) elevator up the face of a mountain, despite not having the money to operate it.
The tiny settlement of Sutera, tucked away in the mountains of Sicily, received a generous grant from the EU to build the elevator, which has been dubbed "the lift to nowhere" by the Italian press.
It was completed in 2012 after endless delays and false starts, but it has never functioned since then because the local council cannot afford the 100,000 euro annual operating, maintenance and insurance costs.
The 120ft-high structure has been called an eyesore by locals, and there are suspicions that some of the money paid out to contractors found its way into the pockets of local mafia clans.
British MEPs called the project a senseless waste of money, symptomatic of the inefficiency, incompetence and corruption that characterise many similar projects in the EU.

Cornwall Council will adopt a new Cornish Language policy, which will demand that street signs are written in both languages.
The changes will only apply to new or replacement signs.
Around 300 people are believed to be fluent in Cornish, while a few thousand can recognise a few words
Funded by an EU directive

zorrow - your Scottish- so i won't patronise you with a 'well done laddie'
Gave you a single market with free movement of capital, labour, goods, services.
And an opportunity for a good moan.

No really, they've just told Sturgeon to feck off so not all bad.
What an evil women - she's got absolutely no right to be asking for Scotland to stay
in the EU on the evidence of the whole of the UK vote.
Glad they ****ed her off
