Title should read :

EU pot calls Ukraine kettle black.

Quote:

Ukraine electoral authorities provided figures after almost all the votes had been counted which showed Pro-Russian Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovich with a three percentage point lead over pro-Western liberal opposition leader Viktor Yushchenko.

"We don't accept these results. We think they are fraudulent," Dutch Foreign Minister Bernard Bot told a news briefing on Monday

At least they held elections where you can vote for people. The only elections the poor mugs of the EU get are to vote for whole parties. And these parties don't even make any of the real decisions. The commision is made up of ex-fraudsters and sacked/disgrace ex ministers. How dare the EU lecture anyone on how to run an election.

Funny how they keep quite about the US elections that have lawyers all over it right now!

Let's not forget to mention that the Conservative party won the Euro elections in Britain by a considerable margin, but Britain's single commissioner is a labour party member.

You don't even get what you vote for in the EU.
