non partisan comment on the European Union and Westminster politics

 

Galileo

Further to my post today about the EU transport white paper,“Transport time to decide” EU Referendum reports that The House of Commons Transport Committee has now produced a report on Galileo. According to the EU white paper, this thing is supposed to be up and running in 4 years time, with all the work on the new technology that is a very short time, neither has the System been fully costed so this could well be anoth open cheque that we will still be paying for in 20 years when Tony Blair will be in the House of Lords, if it still exists.

Very little is being reported in the media about this extremely expensive EU dream to have its very own satellite system to rival the Americanone which is freely availably and already have up and running. There are also 25 links to other pages in EU Referendum fully describing the system, as Dr North says, happy reading.
