BOOM: Check Out These 8 Stupid EU Regulations The Brits Just BONFIRED

When you see the ridiculous regulations that the Brits had to put up with from the EU, you will wonder why they didn't make their exit sooner than they did. 1. Ban on curvy bananas and crooked cucumbers The first - and one which reared its head as the Brexit and Remain camps drew up their battles lines - was the banana regulation. An example often cited as 'legislative heavy-handedness' was the EU ban on 'bendy bananas' and crooked cucumbers. A 1994 EU regulation specified that bananas must be 'free from abnormal curvature.'

Incandescent bulbs have been phased out in stages in the UK since 2009 following European regulations. The Government banned the import of 100-watt bulbs from 2009, followed by a ban on 60w bulbs in 2011 and a full ban on all 'traditional' bulbs in 2012. Share if you think this is crazy 3.
