The Pound/Euro....................

The British Penny  -  European Union Directive No. 456179

In order to bring about further integration with the single European currency, the Euro, all citizens of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland must be made aware that the phrase “Spending a Penny” is not to be used after 31 December 2014.

From this date onwards, the correct term will be:

 
“Euronating”.
 
It is hoped that this will be a great relief to everyone.

As far as the EU goes and spending a penny, I prefer to spend a penny on the EU, the EU can find another country to go and spend it's Napoleonic centime or whatever they call it.
