I have long thought adverts with quotes would be fantastic, some of the things that have been said need to be made more public. I think this one is partiicularly good. Maybe get it designed a bit better, with a particularly bad picture of Mandelson and maybe Blair on it.

A few of my other favourites;
"The time for individual nations [in Europe] having its own tax, employment and social policies if definitely over. We must finally bury the erroneous ideas of nations having sovereignty over foreign and defence policies. National sovereignty will soon prove itself to be a product of the imagination." - Gerhard Schröder, Chancellor of Germany, January 1999.

"Of course, Britain could survive outside the EU...We could probably get access to the Single Market as Norway and Switzerland do..." - The Rt Hon. Tony Blair, MP - UK Prime Minister, Speech in Ghent, 23rd February 2000

"In Maastricht we laid the foundation-stone for the completion of the European Union. The European Union Treaty introduces a new and decisive stage in the process of European union, which within a few years will lead to the creation of what the founding fathers dreamed of after the last war: the United States of Europe."
German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, April 1992.

"Our continent has seen successive attempts at unifying it: Caesar, Charlemagne and Napoleon, among others. The aim has been to unify it by force of arms, by the sword. We for our part seek to unify it by the pen. Will the pen succeed where the sword has finally failed? " - Valery Giscard d'Estaing, president of the EU Convention, speech in Aachen accepting the Charlemagne Prize for European integration, 29th May 2003
