His Original Plan To Commute From Bolivia Didn't Work Out

Is this the lamest 'gotcha' ever:
Now it turns out that the MEP [Daniel Hannan] is planning to move to and live in Brussels. He hates it so much he’s actually planning to move out there.
Ignoring the implicit assumption that being hostile to the European Union means hostility towards Europe, is anyone really going to be shocked that a Member of the European Parliament is going to live in the city where the institution is mostly based?

They're also ignoring the implicit assumption that people who hate 'Brussels' (the place from which all the stupid regulations emanate) must also hate Brussels (a rather jolly town in Belgium).
