Mr Potato Heads running Europe

The EU institutions appear to have adopted a curious abbreviation of the word ‘President’ in their communications over social media.

In the name of brevity they’re now referring to their political masters as ‘pdt.’ In the Brussels beltway, where eating out is even more common than EU institutional presidents (17 at last count), ‘pdt’ is more readily associated with the Belgian menu abbreviation for ‘pomme de terre.’

With that in mind, and an evening of idle time on photoshop, what follows was inevitable.

Here is what springs to BM’s mind at every mention of ‘pdt #Barroso’.

More pdts to follow.

Our pleasure.

BM.
