MULTI-TASKING took on a whole new meaning in the European Parliament yesterday as one MEP entered the chamber to vote while accompanied by her little girl.
Perhaps the childminder had called in sick, or perhaps Danish representative Hanne Dahl simply couldn't bear to be parted from her gorgeous daughter for even a moment.
Either way, while the Strasbourg politicians knuckled down to the weighty business of the day, Ms Dahl junior simply kicked up her feet and stretched back on her pink blanket, unperturbed, while mum got on with the job in hand .
Yesterday the parliament recommended the European Union stop aid payments to Spain unless it moves to change aggressive and often corrupt housing construction projects.
The EU lawmakers said that Spain should "suspend and review" all urbanisation plans that do not take into account environmental, social effects or legitimate ownership rights.
